Yep, I try to put only heirloom in so we can collect seeds. Passed on most excellent collection before we moved (then moving van wasn't even inspected, alas), but aim to rebuild here - only pulled a few things this year though. Pole beans, tomato, no brassicae family stuff yet (maybe will seed in spring?), lettuce shriveled and didn't really seed, carrots are only year one. But it'll come together. Great that VV is offering seed saving classes.
I need to spend some time on this website to figure it out. More importantly i need to meet more Cedar Cottage/Trout Lake folks. Good to be working back in Vancouver now, it'll be easier.
Hi Ross...
It was great to connect with you at the seed saving workshop on the weekend. I have just spent some time looking more thoroughly at the Village Vancouver site, and checking out the diverse collection of groups which have formed so far....I am excited to be connecting with this growing community!

Hello,
Thanks a lot for the invitation to join Kitsilano Village. Unfortunately I was not able to attend the potluck last Sunday but I will definitely follow up what is going on at Village Vancouver.
Ross,
It was good to meet you again at the transition workshop and I am happy to join Vancouver Village and try to get things started in Port Coquitlam. Thanks for the invitation to join.

Hey Ross,
Yes I am back! Just been settling in with school and work. My schedule is pretty established now so I have been waiting for an event that fits in!
Looks like you guys were busy this summer.

Both Karen & Ian are doing the workshops. It's been a great canning year for sure, although fruit harvests have been abysmal in Richmond. No apples to speak for.

It would be great if we could do that Ross. We have a fair amount of material we've developed for Bowen that we'd like on our own page but would also like it to be accessible to VV.

Ross,
We all kind of got busy in the summer & Bruno went to France. We'll try to kick things off again in the fall when the dust settles.
In the meantime, we've been doing drop-in canning sessions under the Food Security Society.
Thanks, Ross. You may be interested in an event I'm putting on on October 10 at the eatART lab, 577 Great Northern Way (around the back). It's called "Reinventing the Prayer Wheel" and is in conjunction with the 350.org 10/10/10 Global Work Party on climate change. http://www.350.org/reinventing-prayer-wheel

Ross,
I spoke to the CBC reporter and assured her that my spoken French was not up to her requirements. I offered to put the word out to the community that she was hoping to interview a bilingual member of our local backyard chicken community but do not have her contact info?
