Spring is just around the corner and planning is in full swing for another great Stone Soup Festival. This East Vancouver tradition marks the beginning of spring and gives opportunity for the local community to come together in celebration of spring, food, the environment and community itself. This year we will be highlighting Urban Agriculture including urban farmers and backyard food production with workshops, an author talk, demonstrations, a food market, free soup and more! More than ever people are aware of the issues of food security, the benefits of sharing resources and eating ‘local’. We look forward to another fabulous community food event featuring mini farmers market, local artists, workshops, community food information tables and entertainment with a focus on food sustainability, food justice, and the environment. We would love to see you there.

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.

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.
