Website Update: New Website

Submitted by Andrew Simard on

We now have a new (and improved!) website.

The previous website was slated to be upgraded, but along the way it ended up being easier to just replace it as the upgrade path from its previous home under Drupal 8 to its new home under Drupal 9 was not as smooth and well-orchestrated as one would have hoped.  As there wasn't much in the old site to carry forward anyway, and as it had been carried forward from Drupal 6 and 7 previously, it seemed a good time to start with a clean slate.

Website Update: News From Elsewhere

Submitted by Andrew Simard on

As part of the recent website overhaul, a new section "News from Elsewhere" has been added to the site.  This is a curated collection of RSS links covering topics of interest to 500 Foods and its current and future stakeholders and community members.  These are largely focused on container growing, vertical farming, and generally alternative methods of commercial growing, along with the related labour and packaging considerations.  All topics of interest here.
