Sporadic news
So, here’s where the LETS project is right now: we’ve had the first information meeting yesterday evening, and there were around 50 people. Among those, 30 are sure to join the initiative, and the most important success is that there are 10 volunteers who want to be in the launch team. I was right to bet that I was not the only one considering that starting a barter network was a good idea.
The next step will be to define the structure of the network (especially the legal aspects of the association), as well as the name, the ambitions, etc.
Meanwhile, there is an awful lot of work to be done in the garden to put it in its spring tracks before we have to leave for two weeks (we fly across the Atlantic to visit NYC* and Martha’s Vineyard in late April, because my brother is getting married in New England). Therefore, as far as wisemandarine.com is concerned, it’s going to be a thin dotted line for a while.
(*) we’ll be visiting Emily, Dorr and Hobs (and apparently we’ll miss Becky).
