Hi there,
 
I could not get into the site. I only got the front page with "live July 7". I couldn't see where you would create an account either.

(Hi -- I posted this as a comment on the website.  People can do 
that, but please
also send the notes here)

Ali;

It is nice to see site this up and running.
I think that you have made a good first pass at the content.
I would like to see a bit more specialization. Not just "I consume"
but "I would like to consume". If I have a source for a local food
item, I would like to either indicate it or have a means to invite
that producer to register. If I am looking for local food items, I
don't know whether any supplies exist for me. I don't know if a comma
separated list is sufficient for searching... but again, a good start.

Are the categories/roles listed at the bottom of the profile taken from
the Rhode Island site that I mentioned? I think that they could use a 
bit
of explanation...

Also, in terms of geography, it would be nice to have a tighter focus
on Saskatchewan.

Best regards,
Daryl
