Welcome Them!

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

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...: Trying to live zero waste, growing my own food, organizing neighbourhood potlucks, organizing community repair events through Repair Matters, recycling / reusing, thrifting, biking everywhere and more!

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!): Interested in anything that promotes / encourages zero waste lifestyles and urban homesteading. Especially interested in reuse, repair, backyard chickens, gardening and DIY activities. I can bring repair skills, recycling knowledge, passion for sustainability and community into the mix!

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?: Transition to a more reuse / circular economy vs. a linear economy. I don't necessarily have an idea, would just like to be part of the conversation.
