Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities
I was browsing the net the other day, and found a global site that connects people with extra land, or land that they are willing to share, to people who don't have land and want to grow food.
It uses google map technology to display where "land seekers" are and "land lenders" so to speak.
I highly recommend it!
Enjoy.
