Profile Information

In which Vancouver neighbourhood or other community do you live?: West End, Grandview-Woodland

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...: Community building, urban agriculture, the arts, potlucks, sharing ideas.

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 don't have a lot of expertise but would be willing to contribute time. I'm new so I don't know too much of where I would be a good fit.

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?: More emphasis on local, organic food. (Also, save the bees!)
