Event Description

Village Vancouver, the Drop in Spaghetti Night Team and Kitsilano Neighbourhood House are collaborating to bring you a celebration of the wildly delicious DISNs!

This month's Kits House Potluck celebrates a series of several locally-sourced and locally prepared neighbourhood dinners hosted by Kits Villagers and supported by a Vancouver Foundation Neighbourhood Small Grant. Each of these meals has brought or will bring neighbours together to share a meal cooked on one stove, reducing transportation and energy consumption, with one of the goals being to introduce neighbours to one another.
 
Hosts have been encouraged to prepare their meals using locally-sourced ingredients (e.g., 100-Mile Diet) - for example from the Kits Village Collaborative Garden and the Westside Community Food Market and to track the origin of all of their ingredients.  We will be reporting on the results of these Drop-In 'Spaghetti' Nights and encourage all who hosted or participated in a DISN to share their experiences as well.
 
We invite you to bring a dish featuring local ingredients to share at this month's potluck.  Local chef Russell Cameron will once again be providing his fabulous soup and bread.
 
Please RSVP on event post or to Ross at ross@villagevancouver.ca.

Sounds good, Hendrik. This is the community wide celebration; whereas the other ones are mostly aimed at neighbours living within 2-3 blocks of one another, though open to all, of course.

See you on the 7th.

Cheers,
Ross

Sorry a typo slipped in; this is all happening Thu. Nov. 7th, of course!

False Creek South is nearest to me, so I am most interested in attending that one. I live at Cambie and Hastings and will consider hosting one in my building (Woodwards) after I have attended a few at other locations. We already have a communal meal in our building with tenants every Sunday, so we will probably combine with that. I will try to attend the Nov. 6th in Kits, but only briefly. There is a book launch at VPL (Alice McKay Rm) at 7pm, called "Alternatives to Capitalism" Others may be interested too.
