Is Boaty McBoatface taken?

NERC got some great suggestions...can we?

The River Lab goes into the water on June 20th and though it we think the name,  The Floating Farm says it all, we were thinking that we should have something a bit more catchy.  The platform is a pretty simple thing.  It is really just a flat platform, supported by 55 gallon plastic drums.  We are going to use it to grow food.  We are going to use it to host events.  We are going use it to display art.  We are going to use it to do research.  We are going to use it help clean up the Lake Hartwell and the Savannah river this year with plans next year to work on the Chattahoochie  and in year three we take to the sea along the South Carolina coast.  Think about it as something like The Enterprise for the river.

We are reaching out for a little help in naming her.  What do you think?  Boaty McBoatface?  The Enterprise?  Should we stick with The Floating Farm?

We are always welcoming suggestions and we will be posting them here on the blog and offering you a chance to vote!  Send us your suggestions at grow@thelifecooperative.org . If your choice is chosen, you win a t-shirt with the name on it.
