Welcome Them!

In which Vancouver neighbourhood or other community do you live?: 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...: growing more urban food, localizing economy, permaculture, urban homesteading, potlucks, community building!

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'm interested in growing with, sharing ideas and helping within the Vancouver community, I am still fairly new to this city and am looking to meet like minded individuals working towards a similar goal. I am passionate and a contract yoga teacher so I have a lot of time to invest in various projects. I want to work to help people see their vision for this cities future unfold. I love food and am passionate about educating individuals on the importance of organics and knowing where their food is coming from and learning to be self sufficient.

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?: I want to see more programs to help individuals be self sufficient, there is so much poverty in our city and a lack of jobs if we can help each other be self sufficient and build a community of sharing resources and skills we can make a better future for ourselves.
