Village Vancouver

Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities

Time: Sunday, June 24, 2012 from 8:30am to 3:30pm
Location: Kits, RSVP for address (near 5th and Arbutus)
Organized By: Ross Moster, Justin Ritchie, Jane Williams, Nick Grabovac, and Kits Village Gardening Collaborative

Join us for a community "barnraising" in transforming a property using Permaculture design principles. Last year close to 25 people participated in converting a Kits front lawn near the beach into a Permaculture food forest.

June's Kits Blitz garden party will be held at a home near 5th and Arbutus, and and we'll be working on a front yard and a blvd. and focusing on medicinal plants and flowers. VVer Nick Grabovac will facilitate. Nick is a Permaculture Designer and founder of Vancouver Permaculture Meetup.

Please RSVP on Event Post. Everyone welcome - it's fun, it's educational, and we feed you!

Supported by a Green Neighbourhood Small Grant from the Vancouver Foundation.

(By the way, we're always looking for more locations in Kits Village and elsewhere to do more blitzes.)
