Martine and Nicole and Genny presented an overview of the Food Program’s sum of activities, and the main impression I was left with was that it’s one of the most vibrant, intensive community food programs I’ve ever heard of.

From 1995 to 2000 I was information services director at FarmFolk/CityFolk — http://ffcf.bc.ca — so I was privileged to spend most of my time building databases and directories listing community food and agriculture projects in BC and abroad, and meeting organisers at conferences and workshops.

I can safely say that this program is simply amazing, and a world-class example of an effective small community program. Serious kudos, especially to Jane Wolverton’s leadership and vision, and organisers Janice Oakley and Martine Paulin. (OK, back to the AGM)
