Foraging Groups?

Posted on May 8, 2011 at 10:56pm 12 Comments

Just wondering if there are any foraging groups here in Vancouver or if there are plans to incorporate one into Village Vancouver? I would love to learn about foraging edible herbs and flowers, fruit, mushrooms, etc as well as DIY herbal medicines. If anyone has any information on this in the Vancouver area, it would be much appreciated! Thanks...

Hi Chris - nice to meet you last night.  Keep in touch.  604 875 6446.  We are on the road 3/28 - 4/16 but when we get back let's get together.  We can talk about a sewing project to do while the food grows!

Thanks for the Winnipeg Beans, Chris.  

I feel like Jack from Jack and the Beanstalk to have such a special package come from so far away.  They must be magical.

Thanks also for helping to set up last night.

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.

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.
