Nous vivons maintenant plus longtemps.Il y a apparemment 60,000 américains âgés de plus de cent ans.D’autres clichés à oublier, disent les auteures: “ne pas mettre tous ses oeufs dans le même panier” ou encore, “demain est le premier jour du reste de votre vie.” Notre société est façonnée par les tendances qui façonneront aussi notre avenir.Vous ne pouvez pas “clicker" selon les nouvelles d’hier.Parmi les tendances identifiées pour l’avenir se trouve celles du retour aux sources et la sensation d’anti-grand et gros qu’on retrouve partout dans le monde.Il y a aussi la tendance très marquée du retour vers la spiritualité (spiritualité ne veut pas dire religiosité).La tendance vers la manière de penser des femmes (FemaleThink) est très importante pour la planification des affaires.Parce que les femmes voient, entendent, ressentent, veulent et achètent différemment des hommes, on doit prévoir un marketing en conséquence ou perdre certains marchés.Un des chapitres du livre est dévoué aux “Clicking” et les enfants.Quelles études devront-ils entreprendre et quels emplois seront disponsibles dans l’avenir.Dans certains cas, Clicking veut dire: être là au bon moment (timing).Et, dans l’ére où nous vivons, nous devons comprendre que nous sommes personnellement responsables de notre vie et de bien nous sentir dans notre peau même si la tendance est à faire partie d’un clan (clanning) soit une association d’affaires, de loisirs, de goûts ou d’intérêts semblables.Le livre est bourré de détails marquant le début de nouvelles tendances dans le domaine de la nutrition, de la santé et des soins s’y rapportant, de la science, des produits recherchés, du mode de vie de l’avenin L’analyse des tendances reconnues par la participation de plus de 1,500

Duhamels apprenticed with a CSA in Lucknow, Ontario.They learned the ropes form the McQuail family, the subjects of a recent article in the June edition of Canadian Living.According to Frédéric, CSA is a concept which grew out of urban centers in Japan and the United States, where organic produce is expensive, when available at all.“A group of people would get together, rent a piece of land, then pay a gardener to raise produce for them,” he said.“Community shared agriculture is a new way of thinking about the relationship between farmers and consumers.With CSA, consumers pay in advance for produce grown by a local farmer.Their money goes directly to ‘their farmer,’ who delivers their food We are proud to announce the opening of CENTRE OE TIR our Clay Shooting installations.“TRAP and

specifically bred for mechanical harvesting, uniform ripening or the ability to withstand long storage or shipping conditions, a CSA farm operates on a small scale, its produce intended for immediate use.This allows the freedom to select varieties that excel in taste and may be harvested at peak ripeness and nutritional content, varieties that might be discarded by mass-market growers as too fragile for long-distance shipping or longterm storage.For example, the Duhamels will be growing the tomato Brandywine, a variety widely known among gardeners for its excellent taste.The CSA philosophy encourages the planting of open-pollinated varieties which are, by definition, non-patentable and more importantly, may be propagated the following year from collected seed.This practice has the added benefit of rebuilding and maintaining a genetic reserve of diverse varieties, many of which were lost during the decades when monoculture (the large-scale planting of a single, often highly-inbred variety) prevailed.Christelle said consumer motivation for joining a CSA varies.“Some are interested in showing their children how food is produced; some are health-conscious or prefer for high-quality, fresh produce; some urban dwellers see it is an opportunity to make a trip out of the city," she said.At Tessa’s Garden, the emphasis is placed on allowing the “sharer” to know both his producer and the production means employed.Sharers are encouraged to visit the farm with their families and may even exchange labor for a membership discount.The fee, which averages $15 per week for a family of four, entitles the sharer to an assortment of fruits and vegetables as they are harvested.The value of the harvest varies over the course of the season: In some weeks, the value of the family allocation will exceed the weekly cost of $15 (such as when high value per acre vegetables such as asparagus are harvested); in other weeks, the value of produce may drop below the weekly cost.Over the long haul, these differences even out.Most of the produce sold at Tessa’s Garden will be raised at the farm in Stan-bridge East.However, the labor-intensive nature of organic cultivation precludes raising everything and, in specific cases such as strawberries, they may purchase crops from other local organic growers if there is sufficient interest to generate a bulk order.Distribution of the harvested goods, in order to remain cost-effective, has been simplified.“Produce is dropped off at a prearranged point such as La Tisane in Bedford or maybe picked up at the farm," said Christelle.“However, we are willing to deliver to drop-off points in order areas as long as we have at least 10 sharers at that point.” • • • The Duhamels will be giving an information session for those interested in becoming a sharer of Tessa’s Garden on Sunday, May 25, at 2 p.m.at 105 Chemin Nord, Stanbridge East.Those seeking more information may call (514) 248-7676.H Club Med Fitness
