Wild Food
News
Written by Klaudia van Gool   

Saturday 2nd May saw a good turn-out of people getting off the train at Causeland for our Wild Food Walk.  There were so many useful plants growing actually in the grounds of the station that it took more than half an hour to get moving.  As there were so many plants and so much information it was difficult to keep up with it all. So here is a list of most of the plants we met. Hopefully we can get a separate page set up with pictures and how to use the plants.

St John's Wort, Meadowsweet, Nettle, Dandelion, Pink Purslane, Cleavers, Burdock, Valerian, Wild strawberry, Hogweed, Garlic Mustard / Jack-in-the-Hedge, Sorrell, Bittercress, Ground Elder, Lamb's Lettuce, Ramson/ Wild Garlic, Navelwort, Blackthorn / Sloe, Ground Ivy, Elder, Primrose, Bramble (tips), Yarrow, Thistle.

Some plants to avoid:

Hemlock, Water Dropwort, Dog mercury, Foxglove

Liskeard Credit Union
Liskeard
Written by Tony   

  I work as a development worker for the local Liskeard based SECCURE Credit Union - my job is to expand and consolidate the credit union. There are clear links and overlaps between credit unions and transitions - local economy, keeping money local with a multiplier effect, safe place for savings, access to affordable and ethical credit perhaps especially for people who find themselves outside the financial mainstream. Let me know if you'd like to know more about what SECCURE offers its members.   
 
SECCURE is run almost entirely by volunteers, many of whom have been with the credit union since it was set up.  I'm working on having more flexible volunteer roles so that they are interesting and rewarding with access to all kinds of training (not just narrowly about the credit union) that may help people develop new skills and interests.  That's a month or two down the line, but right now I'm looking for people who might consider joining the Board of the credit union.  The Board sets direction and strategy, and oversees the credit union.  I wont go into detail here so contact me absolutely without obligation.
