Village Vancouver

Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities

VV/Kits Transition Village participation in Kits collaborative community garden - looking for one or two more members

Last year, Village Vancouver (along with Westside Food Security Collaborative, the local branch of the Canadian Cancer Society, and Kits Neighbourhood House) helped start a small collaborative community garden at Kits Neighbourhood House at 7th and Vine.

This year, there are about 15 people participating, including six of us from Kits Village. We have regular work parties on Tuesdays from 1-3. Tasks, responsibilities, and garden space (and fun!) are all shared, and excess yield - there was an amazing bounty of food grown last year - is donated to local food providers.

At this time, we're looking for one or two more Kits Villagers to join us.

If you're interested in participating, let's talk about it.

Cheers,
Ross

This sounds interesting. I'd like to grow some goodies. I shall be away part of the summer but my godson Thomas lives v. close and can look after while I'm away.
I'm glad you're interested, Angela. I'll send you some further info, and then let's talk. Where does Thomas live?
I am very interested...I am not sure if it is too late.
Hey Soraya,

No, it's still a possibility. Whereabouts do you live?

Chers,
Ross
