Food Not Lawns Fredericton is a group of eleven St. Thomas sociology intro students. Each student was given a designated task to complete and then report back at the start of the next week. Our group had it's own blog containing useful information about how to turn your lawn into a garden, we had a Facebook page where information and videos were posted and we had a promotional video for our blog, and posters were made to up around Fredericton to spread the word. The blog and the Facebook page have been very successful in getting the information out; we have had views from all over the world!
My name is Emily and I am one of the Facebook page administrators. I, along with my partner, set out to find information and helpful videos to post on the page. A lot of the information that we used came from the blog, we would only takes part of the information and then tell the reader that the rest can be found on our blog. When first beginning this, I never knew why it was important to grow food not lawns, but from finding all of the information for the page and watching videos on it, I actually learned a lot of neat, new tips. The page has been very successful in getting the public involved, we currently have over sixty likes on the page, and it keeps slowly growing!
