Attn: Local Food Producers - ThINC Food Mapping Questionnaire

Hello local food producers, 

Thanks again for participating in our recent survey on Thetis Island’s food security.  Based on the results, a large percentage of respondents felt local food security was very important, were interested in finding out more about local food sources, and wanted to contribute to our community’s food security. 

Your responses also showed that there are a variety of food sources on Thetis! Some include: farms, gardens, orchards, vineyards, medicinal gardens, livestock, eggs, etc.  We are currently developing a database of such food sources and would really appreciate your input! 

If you think you fall into one of these categories and are interested in being included in the database and the food map, please complete this questionnaire: 

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSexmGiB2EV5GgB_inLpoA2n7DH_O8WdgT7yl7KY1wjfZxHHKw/viewform?usp=sf_link 

We would appreciate hearing back from you as soon as possible as we have a restricted timeline to work with.

If you have any questions related to the questionnaire or the food map, please email us at: ThINC@thetisisland.net
