Please tell us which areas of Transition interest you. For example: growing more food/urban agriculture, relocalizing our economy/local currency, Permaculture, transit, energy efficient buildings, the arts, urban homesteading, preserving seed diversity, placemaking, potlucks, outreach, organizing events, community-building, having fun while saving the world, or...
food growing/urban agriculture, backyard chickens, community-building
There's a saying that "Transition is not a spectator sport". It's true! Village Vancouver runs on people power, and engaging in activities and projects together helps us accomplish more. Which groups, networks, neighbourhood villages, or projects do you think you might be interested in getting involved with? And what knowledge, skills, resources or other assets can you bring to the mix? (Don't be bashful!)
backyard chickens, urban agriculture
What would you like to see improved in Vancouver or in your community regarding sustainability or resiliency? Do you have an idea for a new Transition project or activity?
more urban agriculture and local food in the community

    Welcome, Bill.
    We are gearing up for Main Street Carfree Day in two months, expecting to create a 12-tent Village at the corner of Main and 13th Avenue by St Patrick's Church. We'll have a chicken coop out front and vegetables growing in the back, a library, coffee, tea, and juice. A sustainable community village. Always a fun time.
    Also, every month at Little Mountain Neighbourhood House we have a potluck and workshop. You'll get a reminder of that now.
    If you have any project you'd like to take on, with help, just let us know.
