[soilhack-announce] Soil Hack Gathering 2018

Hi all

So the time has come to organize the next gathering is there anyone 
available? it wouldn't take much time from each person if we have more 
volunteers! I would suggest between 1-2 hours every month or even every 
week? The tasks available could be:
-Skype meetings and discussing event structure and content.
-Time table and workshops
-Publicity, marketing, flyers, emails
-Bookings, creating event bright and answering emails.
-Time keeping during the event
-Facilitating during the event
-Offering a skill share or leading a subject exploration during the event
-Recording, reporting, photos, filming.

 From previous events done collaboratively its really easy and fun when 
there is a good gang of you so don't be shy if you feel you might not 
have much time to offer, the more the merrier.

Nicole has offered Brook End- The date available is 25th to 27th of May 
(put it in your diary)

I feel like this is the best option at the moment and we can just go 
with this.

Good news! We have been given a grant fro £400 to help us make the 
gathering awesome by the good folk of Green Scythe Fair who have a bit 
left over from their event. So we are going to use some of that money to 
help us offer discount places to local farmers and growers, also to get 
some bits and bobs for practical soil workshops.

I'm going to be trying to gather people to the organizing group and 
start the ball rolling I very much hope some of you will put your hands 
up to help make this Soil Hack Gathering excellent.

Yours Frank
