Women’s Equality Prince Edward Island: "Openings for Performers for Fundraiser
On Saturday evening, June 7, Island New Democrats will be staging their first ever variety show.

So please, circle your calendars for June 7 and join us for what should be a great time. More details — including ticket prices, lineup, etc. — will be provided as we get closer to the event. In the meantime, we still have a few openings on the bill so if you sing, dance, tell jokes (especially of a political nature) — or if you know of someone who would be interested in performing — please contact Ron Kelly or James Rodd. Ron can be reached at 894-3143 and James is available through the provincial office of the Island New Democrats at 892-1930."

Women’s Equality Prince Edward Island: "6. Opportunities on Maritime Farms
What are you doing this summer? There are more than a dozen great farms in the Maritimes looking for apprentices. This is the type of work where you’ll learn something new everyday, use your brain and build muscle, plus eat great food. In addition to daily mentoring, you’ll receive room and board and there’s usually a small stipend. There are farms with livestock, CSA’s, market gardens; some are near cities, others on the ocean! All farms have an organic or sustainable production plan. No experience necessary. You must be at least 18 years old and commit a minimum of 8 weeks. Some farms will accept couples/friends too.

Today more than ever we need to being searching for sustainable fuel solutions that work for the farmers and the community.
# Food or fuel options are shrinking as we try to grow traditionally. New energy solutions for island farms need to be examined that reduce the energy footprint of the farm so that a sustainable model is created. A model that maybe overlooked is the micro grow and press model.
# Micro model verses macro model. There is a difference between industrial production of fuel and a macro grow and press operation that is being overlooked because of the failure to understand the difference between these two fuel production models.
# Growing fuels for farms means we need to see thing from a different lens.Our farms need to change and the community needs to rediscover the local food chain. A farmer need the ability to use his land to be sustainable in food fuel and fertilizer. growing fuel for the farm and using the byproduct for feed and fertilizer needs to remain part of the equation.
