Need baby chicks?

We are now happily in the chicken world too! Yesterday, Leon (another member here) brought us 7 baby chicks from Heidi Shuster of Greendale Heritage Farm in Chilliwack. Thanks for the driving, Leon! Heidi just e-mailed me saying that she will be hatching more chicks (heritage breeds) on June 3rd, if anyone is interested. Her prices are really reasonable (we paid $7.50 per unsexed vaccinated chick) and she does such a great job with the chicks. Leon said, that it's quite the set-up she has out…See More

Hi Jana!

I'm glad you're enjoying the honey!!

Haha I don't think you took to much but we always like awesome veggies so it's hard to refuse! Seriously, your veggies are wonderful!

A potluck would be fun! We'd be up for that! We've also considered hosting one but our place isn't very big... ;). But let me know if we can do anything to help with that!

 

Take care and I'll contact you about veggies soon (once we finish up all we have)!

-Michelle

Hey Jana! Sorry for the late reply. I only just noticed your message today. Probably too late to help you out now!

Hello!

Since you have indicated Hastings-Sunrise as your neighbourhood location, I thought I would let you know that we are in the embryonic stages of creating a Hastings-Sunrise village and have set up a Village Group here at Village Vancouver to facilitate that process.

I am aware that there are lots of neighbourhood groups and activities already in place in Hastings Sunrise and hope that in some way a Hastings-Sunrise Village can help to provide some networking between groups rather than competing as another entity, but also can carry out activities that might be of interest to the other groups as well. Really, it's wide open as to what we do as a village entity... but we need participation to determine what that will be!

Please go over to the Groups page and go to the second page - there you will find Hastings Sunrise Village and can join up and participate in the discussion - and also feel free to post Hastings-Sunrise activities and events there for others to see.

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.

59 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, 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.
