Voices in Unison - Letters to the Editor

Voices in UnisonThis is a new monthly column that will include email feedback from Transition members.

After reading your transition message, I was wondering if you had heard about the new law passed in California about seed saving?

It is now against the law to share seeds, not sure when it became law, but when we were at my sister's market, it was seed exchange day and they were letting people know about this law, and how they were breaking it.  Also, our son Jason went to a Neil Young concert in San Francisco, and they were tossing out seed packages to let people know about it, too.  I have been telling as many people about it here as I can, so that there is no chance of something like this happening here in Washington.

Awesome newsletter.  The photos this gray morn brightened my day.  I am doing a small fire sculpture for the event on Feb.5.
Yes, give me food for Skagit People.  I have been trying to do the same thing in my neighborhood.  I saw the mobile cart in action at Nugent's Corner this season.  I was impressed by collective quality and variety.  I would be interested in working on getting such a wagon in Alger to coincide with handing things off to the Food Bank {that don't sell}.  Even adding the idea of connecting with a restaurant or two. 
I would like you to consider making a focus on forests and small wood lots in your planning.  The Raymer Reserve next to me was intended for educational purposes according to the benefactors wishes.  
Sincerely,
John Boetcher
