Event Description

Let's get starting helping each other through the Transition in Grandview-Woodland! Our neighbourhood is full of great people with many skills, and by working together we can vastly improve our own resiliency while having fun and building community.

 

I am proposing a stone soup gathering: everyone can bring an ingredient to contribute to a delicious soup or soups that we can then share while we share our ideas for practical actions that we can undertake together, right here in Grandview-Woodland. I have a couple of ideas about emergency preparedness and organising to obtain Neighbourhood Small Grants to undertake community projects, and would love to hear all of your ideas as well!

 

Please RSVP on this page if you can make it to this gathering; the location may change depending on how many people want to come. Also, because this is a stone soup gathering, please bring one or two ingredients that could go into a soup along with you. It might also be a good idea to write in the Comments section of this page about what you are planning on bringing, just to prevent a situation where everyone brings the same thing. Depending on diversity of ingredients, we may even end up making more than one soup!

Sorry to miss it!  I would love to meet you all but will be out of town.  Keep me in the loop though - community resiliency & emerg. preparedness are interests of mine, as are local food security & urban farming networks.  Hope to meet you all soon!
