ACTION

At our last meeting, we discussed potential volunteer/service projects we could do as a group. Kim found one that I think we be great for us. Here's her write up on it:



There is a Junior Iron Chef Competition that Vermont FEED is sponsoring for middle and high school aged students statewide. It is at the Champlain Expo on March 28, 2009 from 8:00 to 5:00 pm. They need many volunteers for help with event set up and breakdown, food distribution, activity coordination, etc.

Vermont FEED is a organization with an important mission: "
VT FEED works with schools and communities to raise awareness about healthy food, the role of Vermont farms and farmers, and good nutrition. We act as a catalyst for rebuilding healthy food systems, and to cultivate links between the classrooms, cafeterias, local farms, and communities. Now in its ninth year, Vermont FEED has worked with more than one third of schools in Vermont to create robust and viable Farm to School programs."

So the question is, do you want to volunteer. Please let Kim and I know by Thursday, March, 5th.
