Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities
Welcome to the Main Street Village, Sarah.
Village Vancouver is organized into many smaller, walkable communities, and you are lucky to be in the Main Street area. We hold at one potluck dinner and workshop a month at Little Mountain Neighbourhood House (on Main at 24th Ave). They are on the first Tuesday or every month, so next Tuesday the 7th at 6:00 is the next chance to join us at 3981 Main Street.
There are dozens of other events both here on Main Street and all over the city, and feel free to post any event of your own or friends on this site as well; just select Events and click on the +Add button. (The events just need to have some connection to community-building and/or transition, and a good public party or workshop almost always does.)
Please also join the Main Street page here, as this will get you on the mailing list for a very few timely reminders about local events. (We might send at most 3 messages a month.)
Welcome again,
Randy

Local, organic, rural, and/or urban, food production is a mainstay of life, and doing it well leads to wellness. From farm to kitchen, discussions relating to food--and the community arising around it--belong here.

If you have to leave your village, how will you get where you want to go? By car? Preferably not, both for your wallet and the earth’s sake. This category is for all discussions relating to how we all get around.

A human right? After food, most feel shelter is the most important necessity. A place of shelter is also the start of a community. This category is for all things relating to shelter, housing, affordable housing, homes, renewable heating systems, green buildings, heritage, and our built environment in general.
