No Interest Banking

Wow is it already February! Where did January go? Things are moving so fast these days, we've already had the food security conference, and our first 2 E-SAGE meetings.

Mark's talk last night was great! We had about 40 people out and we talked about everything from what is money and how do our banks work, to alternative banking models, local investment and alternative currencies. There was lots of discussion and we could have talked all night, but we decided instead to continue the discussion at another time. We had a sign up sheet for anyone who was interested in talking more and working with others to create a sustainable "money" system locally. If you are interested in being part of the discussion, you can contact Andrea Jones at andrea@raisingspaces.com.
