Hi all, I'm leading a food gardening workshop at our house on 23rd on Sun, Mar 20 from 2-5. The topic is "Food Crops, Selection and Care". Maybe we could have a potluck afterward and talk about what we want to do as a village.

If you're interested in the workshop, go to www.gourmetgardens.ca/workshops/ for details.

Discussion Forum

Food

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.

42 discussions

Transportation

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.

5 discussions

Housing

A human right? After food, many feel shelter is our second most important need. Community lies in there somewhere. This category is for all things relating to home, shelter, housing, affordable housing, renewable heating systems, green buildings, heritage, and our built environment in general.
