Green Action

Need to work on a way to help other groups and make contact. Is the yahoo group working, should we as h/w read the Sustain website (and follow some of the recomendations..)

Joanne  - Fund raiser/ socail to be planned.

   ""        - Vegan condoms

   ""        - Allotments

There are loads of on-line resources.  These are really helpful.

Sustain has a draft consitiution, food hygine advice and draft documents.  It might sound daunting but this is the place to start.

People and planet are an umbrella student group.  They also mention co-ops but would be an ideal place to recruit members.

Buy nothing day
– brigatte 11-4
– what preparation?
– 10.30 meet at commonplace to set up
– Bring spare clothes for free shop
– Everyone make cakes etc
– Lorna making chapaties
Why is ‘how to set up a co-op’ on green action website so empty. What do we want to put up on it.
Christmas ideas for the co-op

If you like making funky beats and enjoy your veg. Come join Leeds very own Grand Veggie Band!

Making scrumptious new sounds, boppin beats and mellow musical tasty treats from all the veggies, pulses roots and shoots from your kitchen.

Yum!!

The idea was to make a vegetable orchestra for a fundraiser open mic night for Green Action at the begining of December, if youd like to have a go, I was thinking of having a wee session this sunday, my house. Come!

Greenaction Meeting Minutes

11th Nov 09

Thanks to everyone who came to this week’s meeting!

We talked about:

Some films that might tickle yer fancy..

Earth Days Friday 13th November 18:30, Carraigeworks off Millenium Square.

If anyone has any seeds theyve collected or have spare knockin about Ive made a seed swapping box in the co-op,

Saving seeds is an excellent way of growing native plants that are suited and have adapted to our local climate and environment and I think will be important in the future when climates change and it becomes harder to transport food. I'd like to begin to set up a seed bank to collect and share seeds that we can sustainably grow ourselves without having to rely on outside inputs and most importantly is FREE!
