Tuairisgeul

Anns an deasachadh ùr, làn-ath-sgrùdaichte agus leudaichte seo de chlasaig Chelsea Green, tha na h-ùghdaran Henderson agus Van En a’ toirt sealladh ùr air mar a nì sinn Àiteachas le Taic Coimhearsnachd chan e a-mhàin modail eaconamach obrachail, ach an roghainn cheart dhaibhsan a tha dèidheil air biadh agus tuathanaich le chèile.

Do àireamh a tha a’ sìor fhàs de theaghlaichean Ameireaganach, ’s e Àiteachas le Taic Coimhearsnachd (CSA) am freagairt do chruinne-chèile ar solar bìdh. Tha am bun-bheachd sìmplidh: com-pàirteachas a chruthachadh eadar tuathanaich ionadail agus luchd-cleachdaidh faisg air làimh, a thig gu bhith nan buill no nan luchd-clàraidh gus taic a thoirt don tuathanas....Bidh buill CSA a’ faighinn an toradh as ùire agus as fhallaine tron t-seusan agus a’ cumail airgead, obraichean agus tuathanasan nan coimhearsnachd fhèin.

Tha Henderson agus Van En a’ toirt sealladh ùr air mar a nì sinn CSA chan ann a-mhàin na mhodail eaconamach obrachail, ach an roghainn cheart dha leannanan bìdh agus tuathanaich le chèile. Chuidich a’ chiad deasachadh ùr-ghnàthach le gluasad a bhrosnachadh agus, san deasachadh ath-sgrùdaichte agus leudaichte seo, tha e deiseil airson leantainn air adhart a’ stiùireadh na slighe a dh’ionnsaigh àiteachas ath-bheòthail.
