Tatamagouche Centre is presenting a workshop on:

Supporting and Celebrating Local Food Systems
March 19 - 21, Fri. 7 pm - Sun. 1 pm

Imagine our school and work cafeterias bursting with local lettuce and
salads, fresh vegetables warm from the sun brought right to your door, local
groceries and deli's piled with products made by neighbours and farmers down
the lane...  Dare to dream with food! This workshop is for anyone who loves
or grows food and wants to find ways to promote healthy eating, and local
community economic development.  We'll visit local farmers markets, hear
about community, shared agriculture programs and relish in the possibilities
of good food and healthy communities. We'll design strategies to support and
celebrate local food systems for our schools, communities, church and
religious groups. This workshop will truly stimulate your senses.

Leadership:
Mary Lou Morgan, is a founder of  Foodshare, Toronto which provides local
and organic vegetables to low-income communities, she also co-founded "The
Big Carrot" natural food store;
