Tomorrow's Meeting

[jjbeals]

Given the lateness I realize that this may not be seen before we meet,
but there's a chance that Diane Stefani-Ruff will join us. Diane was
the founder of the Portland Farmer's Market and now heads up "Friends
of French Prairie", she runs the Butteville Store and has started a
buying club through that location. I think she would have great
contribution to our group as we work to start the coop. I am not sure
at what level she might be involved but at t his stage I think it wold
be great to hear what insight she has from her experience as we work
to get the food coop going. That might be a good use of our hour.

If she's not able to make it I'd like to propose a brief list of items
to cover:

1. Mission statement. I am going to try to attach a document with a
couple of samples that seem to incorporate the the collective thoughts
to use a starting points.

2. Feasibility study. Itemize some next steps we need to take in
completing that, in particular, a market survey.

3. "Farm meet" scheduled for April 20. Decide if we want to have a
booth and if so then generate ideas for presentation, choose 3-4
depending on their scale and delegate prep work.

This is just a proposal, I am open to other ideas.

Oh man, you guys. Sorry about not showing up this morning! Just totally spaced it. One of those times when I've packed too much stuff, too close together and I totally dropped the ball. I apologize. 

Glad you were able to go over to the Cottage, though. Hope the meeting went well, despite the lame start.

I had sickness in my abode and missed the meeting.  I'd love to hear what would be helpful to be done before the next meeting (and quickly approaching Food Meet).
