Hello, goodbye, and hello again!
ExAct hasn't made it's mark in a while so I'm putting it to bed for now. If you'd like to launch the collective again and get new campaigns flowing in Exeter, then I'm happy to hand over all access! In the meantime, I will leave all the old campaign info up as a reference point for Googlers worldwide.
However, this isn't goodbye for good! - I have my fingers deep in another green pie, namely POGOE: Permaculture & Organic Growers of Exeter!!
POGOE are interested in all things permaculture-related, and especially in setting up and supporting projects in and around Exeter. We are committed to using an organic approach in our growing!
The official (current) blurb reads:
POGOE is an emerging collective of people and groups in and around Exeter who are interested in permaculture and organic growing, which together represent the only truly sustainable way of providing enough healthy, wholesome, real and tasty food for the population – particularly as the reality of peak-oil continues to hit home (with the consequence that oil-based farming becomes too expensive or even impossible on a large scale, in addition to damaging the soil, environment, people's and animals' health). If you are interested in these issues, Google and watch the recent BBC documentary A Farm for the Future – made by one of Devon's own! Leaving aside the negatives of oil-based farming, permaculture and organic growing is about positives, such as getting back in touch with the earth and nature, appreciating the changing seasons and having fun in a healthy outdoor environment.
If you're a gardener, have an allotment, want to get into permaculture, green-fingered or just plain green, please get involved with POGOE! We welcome everyone! More soon..
