I just wanted to forward on the Bellofoodbox newsletter for this week. I have been volunteering with this project over the past year and the project is now at a critical stage. We have been trying hard to get the word out about this fantastic initiative to help to secure the project (our wage subsidy funding runs out on Sept 5th and from then, we need to be at the number of boxes (90) that will sustain a paid coordinator to keep the project running).
As you can see from the newsletter below, the boxes are jam packed with delicious, local, seasonal food. I personally haven't eaten better than since eating from Bellofoodbox. It helps me to be creative in the kitchen, learn new fruit and vegetables and takes the hassle out of shopping local - something which I am very passionate about but often find it hard to do.
Thanks for reading - I wouldn't ordinarily email but we are so close now and have a real chance of securing this local food initiative for our region, that I just wanted to let you know how close we are and that we need your help. There's not many towns of our size that have a successful food box project like this one, so I wanted to play my part to help try and keep it here!
For Earth,
Amy
