[BNS_members] Exciting News

[Soren Bondrup-Nielsen]

Hello everyone,
Some of you may already have heard about the exciting news announced by our MP, Kody Blois.
The Wolfville Farmers Market, the Blomidon Naturalists Society and Earth Rhythms, a local company promoting experiential tourist, were selected by ACOA to receive a one year grant of $265,000 to develop local food and nature based experiential activities. It states that it is for tourists, however, concept of tourism is undergoing a change from traveling and looking to traveling, both locally and abroad, and experiencing.  This means tourists taking part in the local landscape of nature, food and culture, often through story telling. 
More information will be coming out  about this including how to take part in this initiative such as being a story teller.

Cheers,
Soren
