What a week. So much going on that I have no time to blog about it.
A short update…..
Local 101 and Local 201 on the weekend were incredible events. It was amazing to listen to all the things that different people and groups have going on in Calgary that relate to local food. Made quite a few contacts and got the feeling that a lot of people are genuinely excited about the Kingsland Farmers’ Market.
Lots of people visiting the website www.ilovealbertafarmers.com. Quite a few people have downloaded the application form and we can start waiting for the forms to come in.
We developed a new design for what we are trying to accomplish with the market. Not a logo, but an idea for what we are trying to say to the world.
I Love Alberta Farmers
That is what it comes down to. Caring about the people who grow your food, and caring about the people who eat your food.
Yes, I know. Typical male behavior.. unable to say the word ‘love’.
Okay… {deep breath} I love you guys. Thanks for feeding my family.
*****
We are working on the Year Round Application forms right now so hopefully soon we can get those out.
I am off to do the Edmonton Beef Delivery today, then to the Go Organic conference today and tomorrow where I am speaking about direct marketing.
Things are moving forward…. one day at a time.
