Hello all,
we are very honoured to have Dr Jeannette Armstrong speak during our
opening Plenary for the Gathering, July 15th. Dr Armstrong was presented
the George Woodcock Lifetime Achievement Award at the Vancouver Public
Library last week. She was also inducted into the Library's "Walk of Fame"
- and justly so, with a lifetime of creative, persistent work to celebrate
and support the arts through her work at the En'owkin Centre, as the Canada
Research Chair in Okanagan Indigenous Knowledge and Philosphy, and through
a multitude of other venues, writings and artistic work.

In addition to Dr Armstrong, we have a wonderful lineup of speakers,
workshops, field trips and, of course, eating and networking.  The attached
document contains the details of the many workshops as well as the final
schedule (last page).

Registration is required by end of the day July 7th. Register here.

"Rather than concentrating on what sort of food is healthy for the
individual person, we must think about what kind of production system is
healthy for the globe. Acting in the context of this vision of a different
kind of food system, we will gain the freedom - and the power - to force
change for some measure of justice in this one." Cathleen Kneen, 1987
