[BCFSN] Some great articles on agriculture and weed management (and benefits) The Weed's News - Digest

[Pamela Zevit Adamah Consultants]

Hi All,

I don't drink beer, but I feel this new Spawning Sockeye Ale is worthy of
promotion. Anything flavoured with the likes of spawning sockeye salmon has
to be filled with rich flavour!

I really appreciate that our friends Rebecca Kneen and Brian MacIsaac of
Crannog Ales, have been long time supporters of Indigenous peoples and are
willing to put them selves out there in the marketing world to say
so...they even named one of their beers "Land Claims Lager", and refused to
sell their beer at the Delta Hotels in Sun Peaks Ski Resort until the hotel
and the resort recognized Secwepemc land claims to the area.

You can find more information about their organic brewery on their website.

Please distribute this beer release event widely within your circles to
promote an enterprise with a deep social and ecological conscience.

Hi folks -

Please join Left Fields and Crannóg Ales to celebrate our newest seasonal
ale, Spawning Sockeye Ale. It features our own wild hops, named "Sockeye",
in an american amber style ale. The PARTY is Saturday October 4, from 2-5
pm at the brewery. We'll have music, food and information on salmon and the
Adams River Sockeye run which is just beginning.

Proceeds from the beer, t-shirt sales (yes, Brian made a special new design
for this beer!), and this event go to benefit those who defend and help
wild salmon: the Pacific Salmon Foundation, Adams River Salmon Society, and
a group of people from Secwepemc Territory who are defending the land and
the headwaters.

We hope you'll join us and spread the attached poster far and wide.

For more information, please phone the number below, email us or check out
Crannóg Ales' Facebook page.

See you there!
