Profile Information

In which Vancouver neighbourhood or other community do you live?: Downtown, Victoria-Fraserview-Killarney

Please tell us which areas of Transition interest you. For example: growing more food/urban agriculture, relocalizing our economy/local currency, Permaculture, transit, energy efficient buildings, the arts, urban homesteading, preserving seed diversity, placemaking, potlucks, outreach, organizing events, community-building, having fun while saving the world, or...: Urban homsteading, traditional food preservation, gardening!

There's a saying that "Transition is not a spectator sport". It's true! Village Vancouver runs on people power, and engaging in activities and projects together helps us accomplish more. Which groups, networks, neighbourhood villages, or projects do you think you might be interested in getting involved with? And what knowledge, skills, resources or other assets can you bring to the mix? (Don't be bashful!): I'm interested in becoming involved in a community garden, as a participant and organizer. I am an excellent writer and editor, and a decent communicator and group facilitator. I am a phenomenal listener and love to learn and share information. I'm great at seeing what needs to get done and getting organized in order to achieve it.

What would you like to see improved in Vancouver or in your community regarding sustainability or resiliency? Do you have an idea for a new Transition project or activity?: I would love to see even more community gardens!

I agree to read and abide by the Site Guidelines under the About tab on the navigation bar, remaining respectful in all communications on this web site.: Yes

The best place to look for general information (though a bit incomplete) is on the community gardening page. In terms of new Village gardens and helping out, I pretty much handle and am available to chat about this, if you'd like.

It's great to see all the things you're interested in. There's lots going on and I'd like to touch base with you about helping start new VV gardens (and fruit orchards) and other ways we can put your skills to work.

Cheers,
