This month’s meeting features our Annual General Meeting as well as a presentation by PRI Sask member Michelle Hubbard on sustainable agriculture in Cuba.
As usual, doors will open at 6 pm and we’ll share a delicious potluck meal starting at about 6:30.
Our AGM will start at about 7:30 after we’ve cleaned up. Short and sweet, this part of the agenda will take about half an hour. We will share an overview of what we did this past year, a few of our plans for the future, our financial statement and elect our executive.
At about 8 pm Michelle will begin her presentation.
Sustainable Agriculture in Cuba – A Canadian Perspective
In February 2011, Michelle participated in a course on sustainable agriculture in Cuba organized by Canadian and Cuban organizations, including “The Urban Farmer” (run by permaculutralist Rob Berezan, http://theurbanfarmer.ca/) and ACTAF (a national Cuban organization). They visited many farms, including government-supported urban agricultural projects (organoponicos), private, small-scale family farms, research farms, permaculture projects and government agricultural research stations around Western Cuba. Michelle will share some of her slides and experiences with us.
Everyone welcome.
