FROM THE EDITOR
Believe in the laws of attraction? Well, we’re giving it a try. In the spirit of willing things to happen, this month’s issue is all about bringing the heat. Hot topics, solar power, summer drinks—even a visit to our fire department. And if that’s not enough to warm your thoughts, perhaps our campfire lattes will. Make no mistake, it’s July in the city, and we’re ready for some sunshine.
As usual, we met and worked with some fantastic people on this issue. We hope you’ll enjoy meeting them as much as we did. When we weren’t busy profiling local businesses or testing campfire recipes, we were dipping our toes in some hot topics, starting with—wait for it!—urban chickens, of course. From keeping a coop to adopting a heritage chicken, urban agriculture is definitely a topic that’s ruffling some feathers.
So have a read, and think hot summer thoughts. As they say, with self-belief, anything is possible.
At least that’s what I’m clinging to anyway…
Bring on the sunshine!
