The Main Street Neighbourhood village is holding our monthly potluck dinner and presentation tonight (Tuesday, 7 June) at Little Mountain Neighbourhood House on Main Street at 24th Ave (adjacent to the library).  Dinner and a free seed and food plant seedling giveaway start at 6:00 and then an urban gardening presentation and discussion begins at 7 for about an hour.  Come and stay as long as you want, or just drop by at any time.

See the full event description here.

Welcome, Benjamin!

As you can see, we are just beginning to build an on-line community for Village Vancouver, and organize our extensive activities more openly and collaboratively through this site. Please feel free to contribute to a discussion, attend or even enter a new event, and join a working group.

I see you have already joined the Main Street Neighbourhood, and I hope to see you at this Sunday's potluck, or any manner of things we are planning for this spring and summer. On Sunday we plan to share seeds for edible produce that you can grow in a pot, and we are gearing up for a massive neighbourhood party in Heritage Hall.

Also, please update your home page ("My Page" in the tabs above) with some brief comments about your interests or a short bio. This will help us all connect with people with similar interests in sustainability, transition, or any other fun activities. Nice photo!
