Village Vancouver

Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities

Hi there,

I help facilitate the installation and maintenance of organic school gardens with SPEC as well as
maintain our building's rooftop container garden.

We have helped establish 3 organic school food gardens in the Kitsilano area that could use your
help over the summer. We're seeking help caring for the gardens including watering, weeding, harvesting, planting, mulching and so on.

I am wondering if any of the members of VV would like to be involved. You can connect with the
community, learn new skills and contribute to our city's food security (including harvesting some
delicious organic veggies for yourself!). 

If so please contact me at mnewell@spec.bc.ca

This is a collaborative project and I would love to work with you to make these gardens a great
success.

PS SPEC is also holding 2 food dialogues/workshops in July. You can view the details at
www.spec.roundtablelive.org/events

Thank you!
