Beekeepers' contingent at GE Free BC Rally this Wed Sept 18th!
Hi everyone! I was wondering if we could get a group of beekeepers together for the GE Free BC rally this Wednesday September 18th. Municipalities will be voting on whether to ask the provincial government to legislate BC as a GE/GMO free area. It would be great if we could make some "beekeepers in support of a GE Free BC" signs and to show support against the threat that genetically modified crops pose to bees. The rally (this Wednesday Sept 18th) is from 7am-10am outside the Union of BC…See More

Results from the asset mapping exercise at Resilience Revolution, an event involving Village Vancouver, the Permaculture Meetup and Evolver Spore Vancouver. This is the list for the eight or so of us in the Grandview Woodland group:
Hastings/Sunrise (Hastings/Nanaimo):

Good to see you've posted the asset mapping to gwn. Might I also suggest copying it and posting it as a blog, as Cylia did for Cedar Cottage? Then we can feature it -- this kind of posting can inspire others to do the same elsewhere. Also, we collected contact info from most people at the meetup, so I think I can tease out some or most of the people that participated in your village. If you remember any names, that might help as well. (It might be a few days before I can get to it.)
How to best asset map on the site? Something we need to think about more, esp as I think we're going to do a lot of it..
Oh, one other thought -- starting a "discussion" rather than just posting as a comment, sometimes reaches more village members -- discussion posts generate an email to everyone (unless they've tuurned that function off); whereas someone will only see a comment if they go to the page.
Think that's it for now.
I'll pass this along to Sid as well.
Cheers,
Ross
