Profile Information

In which Vancouver neighbourhood or other community do you live?: Kensington-Cedar Cottage

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, public events, transit, the arts, gardening, growing food, urban homesteading

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 am a knowledgeable gardener/horticulturalist, good at growing food, love knowing my neighbours and helping each other, manage an independent garden centre, big supporter of small, local businesses

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 dont know is this is relevant to your organization, but i would love to see small businesses thrive over big box companies. It upsets me to see more and more popping up. I like to know my butcher, baker, etc. I believe it helps create communities.

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
