Hi Ross, I met you at an event last year at Heritage Hall. I'm the editor of the Right to Food Zine and was distributing them. Received the invitation to join from Roberta Robertson about the neighbourhood small grants. We've applied.
Thanks, and let the sunshine in.

Thanks for all the information!
