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!): main Street and others when I find them.

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?: backyard eating
more bikes and walking
boulevards into vegetable gardens

We are meeting next at Little Mountain Neighbourhood House for a potluck, seed sharing, and short movie night on Tuesday evening April 5. This is right next to the library near 24th Avenue on Main Street. Please stop in for some free seeds to sow in your garden or inside, or come for the entire event, from 6:00 to 8:30.

We are organizing a number of events this summer, such as Car Free Day on Main Street on June 19. We'll be erecting an entire sustainable village, with chickens, bees, a composter, rain barrel, solar panels, etc. We'll need volunteers to help make it a great place to visit for everyone.

Meanwhile, we are busy growing lots of food in the city and are creating a roving food market (a small farmer's market) to distribute this zero-mile food to every neighbourhood in Vancouver, by bicycle.

There is lots to do, and lots of fun people to do it with.

Whatever you'd like to do, we'll help to make it happen.

How about planting some boulevards with Village Vancouver food seeds?!
