A crash course in changing the world.
As a result of playing EVOKE, I researched what my community is doing for sustainability and increasing food security. I discovered a few things by contacting a person I knew who is active in bringing local farmers to the community on a weekly basis to sell their products. She referred me to "Together Yes" http://tgryes.org/. Their mission is: "Together Yes, Inc. endeavors to inform and support Norwood residents and businesses in matters of sustainability, including economics, conservation of resources, and ecology. In the belief that local actions and initiatives bear influence on sustainability for state, region, nation, and world, Together Yes, Inc. encourages community building and responsible stewardship of the earth and its inhabitants". I had never even knew they existed! Their website is informative and learned many different ways to become involved. I had never even knew we had our own community garden! I had read about it on the website and then stumbled upon it today driving on my way to a store. I plan to go back to take a picture to add to my blog. I have contacted Together Yes so I can join and plan to donate some time and possibly money to the organization, once I have learned more about their activities. If it wasn't for EVOKE, I would never had done this! It is my goal to increase food security for at least one person in Norwood, MA!
