<div>So, any more takers? <br><br>If not, please let us know why not - whether
you are interested in having real life gatherings, and if so, what setting would
suit you better, etc. <br><br>If we are to grow as a community we need your
input...<br><br></div>
<div>In other news, we are inching closer towards having the technical capacity

<div class="h5">> There has been a steady stream of people signing up to this
mail list<br>> and it feels like time to take things
forward.<br>><br>> Something we have been talking about since the
beginnings of the<br>> SoilHack idea is to have gatherings where soil geeks
and the soil<br>> curious can get together to talk and learn about
soil. A day goes<br>> quickly and limits time for interactions where
as a weekend gives a bit<br>> more time for things to happen so we were
thinking about a camp.<br>><br>> SoilHack was formed around the idea of
open collaboration and it would<br>> be good to let this guide the
organisation of such a gathering.<br>><br>> It would be nice if we could
keep financial and organisational overheads<br>> to a minimum by
-<br>><br>> - trying to organise something before it gets too cold for
people to camp<br>> - asking people to bring food to share / collaborating
with food<br>> preparation (this can be a good time to chat)<br>> -
asking people to bring stuff to talk about (do workshops, skill shares<br>>
etc.) There would definitely be some biochar, soil microscopy
and<br>> aerated compost tea stuff going on.<br>><br>> A big part of
it would be to get people together to spark conversations<br>> around soil,
the work and research we are doing, and letting stuff grow<br>> out of
these interactions. Also to see what ideas/energy people have for<br>>
taking SoilHack forward.<br>><br>> Interested in hearing from anyone
interested in participating in such a<br>> gathering.<br>><br>> We
have kindly been offered the option to use the Brook End LAND Centre<br>>
near Street/Glastonbury, Somerset (1hour south of Bristol) on the 9th
-<br>> 11th October if we gave a donation towards expenses (firewood
etc.)<br>> there is a hall / classroom with a woodstove and lots of outdoor
space.<br>><br>> There would be a limit of 25 participants, and along
with camping, space<br>> to sleep in the hall or local
B&Bs.<br>><br>><br>>
