I just got an email from a member at the Kamloops Urban Hen Movement about an upcoming event in Kamloops. It is sponsored by the Aboriginal Agricultural Education Society of British Columbia. There will be a tradeshow and workshop. The tradeshow will feature local farmers, processors, and other local food groups. There will be a change to purchase some local grassfed beef for lunch.

Some highlights of the workshop are:
Dr John Church from Thompson Rivers University will speak on: Producing the Best Beef
Master Gardeners will speak on: How to Start your First Garden
Ellen Duncan, a dietitian from the Q’wentsin Health Society, will speak on: Healing our Food

Date: Thursday, March 26, 2009
Where: The Henry Grube Center
Time: 10:00am to 6:00pm
Cost: admission by donation
