Hello:



The Downtown Eastside Neighbourhood House is looking for volunteer chefs to help us run a variety of community kitchens/food workshops (see description below and attached).



I understand you run such workshops and am wondering if someone from VV might be available to volunteer with us once a month, or help us connect with chefs who might be able to do this.



Thank you,

Melanie

Last year we gardened collaboratively at Kits House and this year we're looking to start a new garden at Billy Bishop Legion Hall -- and perhaps in other locations as well.

We just had our 1st Soup…
