Hi Kathryn, Thanks for the message. Well I can't take much credit for this event - the BC Food Systems Network has been organizing an annual Gathering for 14 years now. I did volunteer to help with the organizing though and it's been great to be involved so far. It's too bad you can't attend. I could meet for coffee sometime nonetheless as clearly we are both very motivated on this issue.

Hey Kathryn,

My name is Matthew, and I am a member of the newly formed Village Burnaby.  I hear through the grapevine that you have taken the leap and started a Village in North Vancouver.  I am really excited to hear this, and I hope all is going well with the group.

I just wanted to touch base and offer to sit down and chat about ideas on building groups both in Burnaby and North Vancouver.  No pressure I just thought it might help to bounce ideas / talk about common problems and issues.

You can contact me on village, or feel free to send me an email - mjfstuart@gmail.com

Thanks Kathryn! Right now the backyard is just a gravel pit - my blog is meant to describe my journey from post-renovation chaos to a productive urban smallholding. I'd love to have you visit sometime when it's a bit more interesting! Keep following my blog for now and when it looks like something you'd like to see just send me a note :)

Hi Kathryn
I am finding my way around this amazing website and group. Love it. I even uploaded a photo of myself featuring my pet turkey Irene and two neighbours when I was a kid.

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.
