Emi, have a great perma-blitz, and maybe catch you at the end.

We've just had our initial 'viewing' of the site, and we're very excited! Please bring a shovel or hoe if you have one, a huge smile and maybe a dish to share for a potluck following an awesome work session!

We had a couple dozen people at the Kits Village blitz a couple weeks ago and it was a whole lot of fun and really educational, and we transformed a front yard into a food forest. Almost 1/2 the participants were from Kits and 4 new people joined our village and have been very active.

VV's Steering Committee is doing some visioning that afternoon 'till 5:30, so I'm sad to have to miss this, but will try to stop by near the end to see how it went. (Some people ended up staying longer at ours-- maybe at yours too?)

Forum

Food

Local, organic, rural, and/or urban, food production is a mainstay of life, and doing it well leads to wellness. From farm to kitchen, discussions relating to food--and the community arising around it--belong here.

Transportation

If you have to leave your village, how will you get where you want to go? By car? Preferably not, both for your wallet and the earth’s sake. This category is for all discussions relating to how we all get around.

5 discussions

Housing

A human right? After food, most feel shelter is the most important necessity. A place of shelter is also the start of a community. This category is for all things relating to shelter, housing, affordable housing, homes, renewable heating systems, green buildings, heritage, and our built environment in general.
