Hi Ann,

Thanks for the welcome and info on the Dunbar Village group. We moved from Ladner and are so pleased with Dunbar/Southlands community and all the trails, horses, birds, bees, and chicken! Our first recon of the neighbourhood involved canoeing down the Fraser from our backyard to Richmond - we loved it.

Looking very forward to meeting you and others in community.

Thanks for the welcome. I joined the Dunbar Village group. Attened the lecture tonight at Robson Square on Climate Change, very engaging. Not sure if the live streaming is available to watch again but worth a look if it is. I've plans already for Thursday, so will miss the film showing. Look forward to join in for other events. Robin

Hi Ann,

Thanks for the welcome! I'm going to try to make it for the screening, albeit a bit late as my classes at school end at 6:50pm. Hope to see you there!

Cheers,

Wilson

Hi Ann,

Can't make it to movie tomorrow- such a shame as I've really wanted to see Greenhorns!  Now that the growing season has ended I'm much more open to helping plan events etc.  Looking forward to working with ya in Dunbar.

Hi Ann - Thanks for the warm welcome!  Since I posted my profile, we've actually decided to move to the west end (!) so I will only be in the dunbar area till the end of the month - but I will certainly come to check out the Dunbar Harvest Festival this weekend. I'm looking forward to connecting!

Hello there. Where does Julia smith have her 300 chickens?
Next spring I may redo my fence in the back of my shop and get a few.
When we had them before they were in our yard next to the old bosleys om Dunbar st.
In the meantime I'd like to do a chicken strain thing on my blog.pictures etc.

Hi Ann,

 

Thank you for your message-I've joined the Dunbar group and would love to hear about the working groups that you have going and the kind of organizational activities you had in mind.

Right now things are just getting started at the B&B and I am trying to transform this turf grass into something productive. Thats a big reason my friend Jeff is coming to help me out-I'm very new in the gardening scene but have lots of spirit :) Jeff on the other hand has lots of experience and wanted to maybe even get some workshops organized about wormi composting, planting mushroom logs etc. But I thought it would be good to see what you already have going on, which sounds like a lot!

So let me know in what capacity you think I could help and I will def check out that property you mentioned.

Talk to you soon,

 

Matea
