Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities
Does anyone know of a place to buy organic layer feed in Vancouver or near to it? Also bales of shavings? Petsmart was trying to order some in for me, but they had no luck. Or are there enough interested people to get together and order in bulk? Maybe have it delivered to someone's garage? It seems totally unsustainable to be driving an hour to go buy the stuff.

They are great folks and will also bring in other stuff that you need - e.g . I ordered my bag of Diatomaceous Earth from them.

Mark's Pet Stop on Commercial Drive close to 3rd Avenue has organic layer feed. Also Mr. Pet's on Commercial Drive will order it in for you, both Marks and Mr. Pets sell it for around $20.00 or so for a very large bag. Mr. Pet's has bales of pine shavings for 11.95.

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.
