Food groupers…We have an opportunity to promote food localization at the fall fair. We could have an excellent central indoor location to work from and there is some excellent resource material available.. I will need to communicate an expression of interest to the fair folks if we want to do this. I am willing to host a food group meeting to discuss it here at Arrowvale. Your thoughts please.

The AVTTS Food Group and local farmers Bill Thomson and Bob Collins have developed and unveiled a new bumper sticker in support of local agriculture: “I EAT LOCALLY GROWN”. So whether you’re a grower, a backyard urban gardener, or a frequenter of the Saturday Farmers’ Markets at Harbour Quay and Arrowvale, you can now let everyone know that you support the valley’s home-grown foods.
The suggested contribution for each sticker is just one dollar.. Watch for them at the Saturday Markets —- and on a bumper in your neighbourhood. It’s one more way to show your support for local food production.
