If you have decided to make 1999 your organic year, then a conference organised by the Growing Awareness group, to take place in Skibbereen, West Cork, from Friday January 15th to Sunday 17th at the West Cork Hotel may well be of interest.
The conference plans to look at the whole question of genetic engineering and how it affects the average individual. Issues such as health, wildlife, consumer rights, the environment and farming will be addressed in workshops and debates, and there will also be a food fair. For further details, phone Growing Awareness on 028-20232.
