Profile Information
- In which Vancouver neighbourhood or other community do you live?
- Mount Pleasant, Riley Park-South Cambie
- 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...
- Green building, beekeeping, chickens, urban homesteading, green living.
- 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!)
- We supply environmentally friendly interior finishing materials and green living products. We also do workshops on things like clay plaster, milk paint, and are likely to do beekeeping and backyard chicken workshops as well. We are moving into our bigger store at 3rd ave and Manitoba in April 2013.
- 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?
- We would like to see more people keeping bees and chickens in their backyard, gardening more, and using natural products in their homes (from beds, to cabinets, to plasters and paints, to wood finishes).
- I agree to read and abide by the Site Guidelines under the About tab on the navigation bar, remaining respectful in all communications on this web site.
- Yes
Village engages individuals, neighbourhoods & organizations to take actions that build sustainable communities & have fun doing it. Join us!
