Irish CSA Celebrated at the Feeding Ourselves 2017 Gathering
The Feeding Ourselves 2017 gathering at the WeCreate centre in Cloughjordan Ecovillage, Ireland, is a now annual event that focuses on community and agroecological approaches to farming and food. This year, 70 people came together over a night and two days to meet up, hang out, plot, plan and generally get energised and inspired by each other's company.
Today at the Via Campesina Conference we had an interesting conversation with members of COAG and EHNE Biskaya on short distribution chains, networking an solidarity economy. Jose Manuel Renitez was actually at the Urgenci conference in Palmela in 2005! And I have met and worked with Auxiliadora Delgado at the REAS Spanish solidarity economy congresses.Javier Sanchez has been working with us in Rome in FAO/CFS/CSM/IPC-related questions for many years too. And Andoni was at our meeting in Ostrava... It's all about the networking and alliances ;-)
