We hope to use Electric House as a venue but need to confirm by early next week so mailing can be sent out.  Urmi will ask someone to take notes/minutes.  Urmi will bring juice, cups, biscuits etc. Our new leaflet can be distributed with the posters.

GLADSTONBURY  FESTIVAL  STALL  30 JUNE 12– 7pm– Viv has applied for a stall under FOE at a cost of £24.00. We will share with two other groups. Viv will look into whether we can apply for a second table. (Update second table ok, so our share is £10) Marjory suggested “Guess How Many Bayleaves Are in A Jar”  which would generate discussion about food waste/fruit harvesting etc  and supplement our mailing list. We agreed to provide a prize of around £15.00. Viv may also have access to books which could be used as a prize. Urmi  will check if she can provide a gazebo in case weather is poor.

FRUIT   HARVESTING – Liam provided a summary of last year’s harvest. Viv will send out a message with a summary of the recent meeting and details of the next fruit harvesting group meeting . The meeting is likely to be in June. The mailing list may need to be reviewed.

COMMUNITY   DIRECTORY – Viv said that we could be included in a Brent online directory. We agreed  not to pursue this as it would involve listing personal contact details. Urmi suggested we ask other community groups to have Transition Willesden as a link on their websites.
