Join Village Vancouver
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, join a working group, or even form a Village.
In the West End you are lucky to have Brent Granby and the West End Residents Association, and VV members Ivan Doumenc and Sibila Maksimcev are both incredible activists and well-rounded people. When a larger critical mass forms, the West End will make a great local chapter, or village (and maybe many villages), of Village Vancouver.
In the meantime, take part in any activities listed on this site, and feel free to join an existing nearby village to get a feel for the activities we undertake. In June we will be establishing a full-fledged "village" on Main Street (yes, right on Main Street!) during CarFree Day. Meanwhile we are sharing seeds and seedlings, making worm composters, and whatever strikes a member's fancy, just so long as it's a low-carbon, no-carbon, or carbon-positive activity.
So join in, and expand your network.
