Hi.

Though i'm not blocking this if others think they want to go for it, it has set off my vegan gland a little as it may do for some others (though i appreciate there's a pretty even split between non/veggies in this group).

As a lifelong animal rights activist, i wouldn't be personally comfortable entering a competition run by a dairy farm, but of course i don't want to be the one holding the tin opener on that particular can of the finest worms :-) also, as the barncamp is hosted at a vegan farm, would it be appropriate to raise funds in this way?

In good spirited solidarity

Why not put in for this for the barn camp?

Community funds
Kerrygold, the butter brand owned by a cooperative of Irish dairy
farmers, has launched the Kerrygold Community Awards.
First run last year, the awards are designed to` encourage, support and
reward people all over the UK that come together to achieve a common
goal that brings benefits to a whole community`. People or organisations
with a good idea for a community project and who require funding may
enter the Community Awards. However, national registered charities are
excluded from entering: the rules state that projects must be `staffed
by members of that community. These projects should be non-profit
generating and should not be initiated by national registered charities`.
