Barbara visits Runnymede Eco village and gives elders support


Saturday at the Runnymede Eco village we have discussions on land rights and civil liberties at the Runnymede memorial around 1pm. Afterwards there are a variety of workshops on Permaculture,wild food foraging,Long house creation and any skill anyone wants to share.With some acoustic music in the evening ,bring an instrument.
This week there was a family atmosphere with children and older folk visiting to see the garden and longhouse, as well as a tour of the massive empty Runnymede  campus.
Barbara an elder who lives nearby gave the place a thumbs up and wished us luck in the campaign for disused land to grow food and create low impact homes.
We discussed over tea in the longhouse the War years campaign to 'dig in for victory',and the need to reduce shipping in food from across the world with air miles of pollution ,when we could be growing locally.
It was good to see 3 generations together at the village.Some women who had been camped at St pauls occupy london also said they would come and camp for 2 weeks.Its good to see the campaign growing.
Help and support needed especially from experienced activists.Bring what u expect to find:tent bowl spoon,tools,weather proofs,torch,climbing gear,rope and of course cake to the frontline.
Dig in for victory we hope to see many more campers as the weather improves.
NOW is the time to stand up for your land rights.
