Late Friday afternoon, June 10th, we were served
with a letter (link to letter posted below) by a Law
Firm from Victoria, informing us that the District
of Lantzille, City Council, is taking further legal
action against us. We have been fighting this fight
since September of last year.
After eight months, we are feeling harassed and tired.
We rely on people to use this information each in
their own way. As many of you know, we only grow
less than 5% of our food on Vancouver Island, thus
over 95% is imported. Furthermore, there is only 2
days fresh food supply in our grocery stores. As
more people move here, and the population
increases, combined with natural disasters and
global unrest, food, water and climate change are
the three big, global issues today. It is becoming
increasingly evident that the local food movement
is the most powerful tool we have to create a
shift in our current culture.
We look forward to seeing how people respond
to yet another attack on those who are thinking
about the future, our children's future and doing
their best to create a world that we can all live
in. Thank you in advance for the action you will
take in support of sustainability and local food.
Yours in service,
