    Hi Sid,

    Just sent this to Hannah. Good to see things percolating in your village!

    Cheers,
    Ross


    Hey Hannah,

    Good to see you've posted the asset mapping to gwn. Might I also suggest copying it and posting it as a blog, as Cylia did for Cedar Cottage? Then we can feature it -- this kind of posting can inspire others to do the same elsewhere. Also, we collected contact info from most people at the meetup, so I think I can tease out some or most of the people that participated in your village. If you remember any names, that might help as well. (It might be a few days before I can get to it.)

    How to best asset map on the site? Something we need to think about more, esp as I think we're going to do a lot of it..

    Oh, one other thought -- starting a "discussion" rather than just posting as a comment, sometimes reaches more village members -- discussion posts generate an email to everyone (unless they've tuurned that function off); whereas someone will only see a comment if they go to the page.

    Think that's it for now.

    I'll pass this along to Sid as well.


    Cheers,
    Ross

    there was a little confusion in my house recently regarding what neighbourhood we belonged to because live just a block west of nanaimo. you listed grandview-woodland as stopping at lakewood but according to http://vancouver.ca/community_profiles/grandview_woodland/index.htm and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandview–Woodland, grandview-woodland continues to nanaimo. so, i guess we belong to grandview-woodland and not hastings-sunrise.

    Hi Sidria, I am trying to figure out how to contact the Grandview Woodlands food group.  I have been backyard food growing for many years, but could stand to learn a great deal. Does this group ever meet?  I don't understand the website format very well, but I can't find a  phone number anywhere.  How does this work?  I don't have the space or time for chickens right now, but know I would benefit from contact with other 'foodies' and probably could offer some help to others.  I'm sorry to be such a web idiot, but if you post back, I'n not sure where I would look for it.  My e-mail is mwaskow@telus.net
