Working Together to Plan for the Future
Old Orchard Inn, Sunday, 17 Jan, 10 am - 3 pm Bill Carr, Keynote Speakers, Food Summit Co-chairs, Citizens and Leaders from Government and Organizations will gather to start "Putting the Pieces Together". Everyone is invited - come and contribute your ideas! There will be a charge for lunch, but other costs will be covered by the Food Summit fund. The phrase heard most frequently from the 250 people who attended the Nova Scotia Food Summit in October - students from many faculties, farmers, educators, fishers, economists, food processors, chefs, concerned citizens, people engaged in healthcare and health promotion, food security, environment, tourism, media, retail - was "working together". |

In December, the Wolfville Farmers’ Market announced the location of a permanent indoor home, courtesy of a recently-signed memorandum of understanding with Acadia University. To-day a $500,000 fundraising campaign was kicked off with the announcement of a $228,500 contribution from the Nova Scotia Department of Agriculture.
The Wolfville Farmers’ Market Co-operative began in 1992 with three vendors and now boasts more than 60. Its vision is to better the health and vibrancy of our communities. Its mission is to provide a fair and direct market venue for locally-produced goods and services in an environment that inspires and nourishes community. Over the years it has operated at various locations in Wolfville, primarily at the Robie Tufts Nature Centre or indoors at the Acadia Students’ Union Building. |
