[Annette Mills]

Hi, EVAT members,

 

Here’s the Zoom link for today’s meeting: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85158424945?pwd=SzExVlZhSFlCckM4L01qbTVOaUxIQT09

 

Please take a few minutes prior to the meeting to review the attached notes from our last meeting.

 

If you’re able, please plan to arrive a few minutes before 4:15, so we can start right on time. Here’s a proposed agenda:

 

1.       Introductions/Check-in question – Name a local business that has implemented one or more sustainable practices. What is one of their practices you appreciate? (5 mins.)

2.       Updates/Discussion (40 mins.)

·         Arts Hub (Kate)

·         CAW/Farm to Table/Buy Local (Adrienne)

·         Toolkit for Outdoor Public Events (Ruby, Kathryn)

·         Resilient Food & Agriculture system (Sean)

·         Local Currency (Mike)

3.       Next steps – ACTION! (Be ready to tell the team what you commit to do between now and our next meeting. It doesn’t need to be a big step, but it needs to move us toward our vision.)

 

See you at 4:15 TODAY!

 

Annette

I’ll send you an agenda and meeting notes prior to the meeting. In the meantime, here are the commitments EVAT members made at the March meeting:

·         Ruby – Ask Parks & Recreation for sample permits required for events, to add to our new Public Events Toolkit.

·         Kathryn – Reach out to people who have put on events that involved street closures, to gather information.

·         Adrienne – Ask CAW (Corvallis Arts Walk) board about idea of bringing CAW together with Downtown restaurants and stores for combined Farm to Table and Buy Local events. Also, talk to Simon Date (Chamber) about empowering the Chamber’s Independent Business Committee to work with us on this idea.

·         Kate – Review ideas from the Corvallis Arts Council Report.

·         Mike – Contact current HOURS board to see how EVAT might help move local currency forward.

·         Kirk – Send list of organizations from Michael Shuman’s book to EVAT Google group.

·         Sean – Continue to meet with key players to explore what a resilient local food system would look like and what is needed to foster its creation.

·         Annette – Ask Aliza (Food Action Team) to send list of restaurants to Adrienne, and send Serena Kapuler’s contact info to Kathryn. Also, contact Cindee Lolik about convening a Buy Local First Committee meeting.

 

Thanks for your participation!

Annette

I live within the traditional homeland of the Ampinefu Band of Kalapuya.  Following the Willamette Valley Treaty of 1855 (Kalapuya …Treaty), Kalapuya people were forcibly removed to reservations at either Grand Ronde or Siletz. Today, the Kalapuya live on tribal lands or tribal-ceded lands throughout the region. Many Kalapuya are active members of the sovereign nations of the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde or the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians. Kalapuya culture is alive.
