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 to Main Street Neighbourhood and we hope you land here permanently!
We are meeting next at Little Mountain Neighbourhood House for a potluck, seed sharing, and short movie night on Tuesday evening April 5. This is right next to the library near 24th Avenue on Main Street. Please stop in for some free seeds to sow in your garden or inside, or come for the entire event, from 6:00 to 8:30.
We are organizing a number of events this summer, such as Car Free Day on Main Street on June 19. We'll be erecting an entire sustainable village, with chickens, bees, a composter, rain barrel, solar panels, etc. We'll need volunteers to help make it a great place to visit for everyone.
Meanwhile, we are busy growing lots of food in the city and are creating a roving food market (a small farmer's market) to distribute this zero-mile food to every neighbourhood in Vancouver, by bicycle.
There is lots to do, and lots of fun people to do it with.
Whatever you'd like to do, we'll help to make it happen.
