[Bob]

Day Workshop Document(
	
Using the experience of a trip to the city farms in Detroit to reflect what 
is happening here in Glasgow or Scotland in the business of growing and 
activism. What lessons can we learn, share, expand on.

Morning will be taken up by a discussion on the growing revolution and what 
is happening in Detroit, by Don MacKeen and Bob Hamilton. Followed by the 
film "Grown in Detroit" that teaches young pregnant girls farming.

After lunch looking at the work of LEGUP, community garden and the 
Fairfield Farmhouse Trust, in Govan who are exploring new ways of setting 
up garden projects using common good and educational templates that could 
be used elsewhere. Other projects input welcome.

The Village Square is a project being set up at the Pearce Institute for 
collecting and distributing information and coordinating events and much more.

The Peoples Manifesto: does what it says on the tin. What is it exactly 
that we want and how do we go about representing and articulating what we want?
