Profile Information

In which Vancouver neighbourhood or other community do you live?: Strathcona

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 Agriculture, Community-building, Permaculture, Relocalizing Economy

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!): urban agriculture

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?: developing an effective locally centred food policy

Thanks for hosting the blitz yesterday it was great meeting you guys! Two things, first I think I may have left my Fruit of the Loom sweatshirt at your house? If it there I’ll come and pick it up when I’m in the neibourhood. Second, I’m interested in growing those shoots. Would you mind explaining the process? Where u get the seed, when u harvest ect. Thanks again.

Cheers, Curtis
