Steve Sandve's Friends

Steve Sandve's Groups

If you don't live in Vancouver or are in another neighbourhood or community we did not list, please tell us where home is.: Southhill

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...: All of the above our community garden website http://elgincommunitygarden.wordpress.com/
and my beekeeping website
http://eastvanbees.wordpress.com/

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!): Don't have an "Expertise" but would be willing to contribute time

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?: food security

I agree to read and abide by the Site Guidelines under the About tab on the navigation bar, remaining respectful in all communications on this web site.: Yes

The bee guy (Reinhardt) won't give me the bees unless I get this equipment - which I am happy to do as I am a beginner!) I leave at 6.30 am on Friday to go to Cortes, have a full time job, etc etc..do you know of anywhere within driving distance that I can get this equipment off the shelf?
