Transition Towns at the Alberni District Fall Fair

At The Booth
At The Booth

 

There was a great deal of activity at the AVTTS booth in the Van Iperen Building at this year’s Fall Fair. We  had a see guessing game, information on gleaning, on AVTTS, on the Seed Library (with the actual library there, courtesy of Vancouver Island Regional Library), on Family Farm Day and a host of lovely pictures documenting farming past and present in the Valley. Sam Brownlee prepared a survey on back yard food production.  Several transitions staffed the booth and greeted fair goers curious to learn more about building resilience and community in the Valley. These included Laura, Edna, Sarah, Judy, Samantha, Brent and Dan.

Planetary, Screening and Meeting

AVTTS will hold its regular monthly meeting at Char’s Landing on Wednesday, July 15, 2015 at 6:00 p.m. The meeting will be followed by a screening of the film Planetary, a state of the planet overview and a commentary on some direction for the future. We will be getting started on planning for upcoming events (Fall Fair and the like) so please think about making some time to get these items under way.
