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...
transit, the arts, potlucks, growing food, community-building and having fun
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 have relationship and communication skills, as I am a registered social worker. Willing to share and teach these skills, as I participate and learn more about Village Vancouver.
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'll see what I'm attracted to, as I learn more in the near future.
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
Don't feel like answering all the questions now? No worries, just tell us briefly why you're interested in joining at this time, and you can come back and update your profile later.
I like the potlucks and community gatherings and meeting new like minded people.

Welcome to the Main Street Village!
We have a busy month coming, starting with our Little Mountain Potluck and Bee Workshop next week on June 4th. You'll receive a reminder on this before the weekend.
Then, in just 3 weeks, it's Car Free Day. Village Vancouver will literally be taking over the west side of the intersection of Main and 13th Avenue. We'll have a library, tea, coffee, juice, chickens, vegetables growing in trays, bees, multiple seed libraries, solar panels, Seedstock local currency, and much more under at least 14 tents. All of this and more will be covered in our newsletter coming out in a few days.
Please join us wherever and whenever you can.
