Village Vancouver

Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities

Kits Village Permaculture PET Day Blitz (creating a new medicinal garden)

Time: Sunday, June 24, 2012 from 8:30am to 3:30pm
Location: Kits, RSVP for address (near 5th and Arbutus)
Organized By: Ross Moster, Justin Ritchie, Jane Williams, Nick Grabovac, and Kits Village Gardening Collaborative

Join us for a community "barnraising" in transforming a property using Permaculture design principles. Last year close to 25 people participated in converting a Kits front lawn near the beach into a Permaculture food forest.

June's Kits Blitz garden party will be held at a home near 5th and Arbutus, and and we'll be working on a front yard and a blvd. and focusing on medicinal plants and flowers. VVer Nick Grabovac will facilitate. Nick is a Permaculture Designer and founder of Vancouver Permaculture Meetup.

Please RSVP. Everyone welcome - it's fun, it's educational, and we feed you!

Supported by a Green Neighbourhood Small Grant from the Vancouver Foundation.

(By the way, we're always looking for more locations in Kits Village and elsewhere to do more blitzes.)

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.
