Nicole - Springfield

Today we listened to "The Ethics of Eating" which I found to really interesting. It was great to hear that the author spent a year eating only locally grown food, some of which she grew in her own backyard. It's very inspiring for those interested in making similar life changes. I was very surprised at how easy she found the transition. She said that they didn't actually miss anything. They switched from thinking about what foods they were losing, to what foods they had available. It's great to see that changing to local foods is possible if you change the way you think about food.

This week we spent alot of time in the office creating manuals for the next generation of leaders when we leave. We also sent out some much deserved thankyou notes and compiled alot of the contacts we have made for the new VISTA that will be taking over soon. It's been great to see how much we've accomplished and how much we've learned.
