Profile Information
- In which Vancouver neighbourhood or other community do you live?
- Arbutus Ridge-Kerrisdale-Shaughnessy
- 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...
- I am very interested in urban agriculture, permaculture, sustainable transportation, potlucks and sharing of food in general, community building etc.
- 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!)
- Probably, but do not know for sure where my expertise will be helpful right now.
- 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 production, transportation and affordable/sustainable housing for sure.
- 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
Village engages individuals, neighbourhoods & organizations to take actions that build sustainable communities & have fun doing it. Join us!

Hi Malin, will there be a September event for plastics recycling?
Sharon
Hi Malin, I missed the plastics recycling on the 16th, but would like to help out with future events if help is welcome. Let me know how would be best to contribute! Lini
Hi, Malin, I'm sorry but I can't host the plastics recycling after all. I have an arts council meeting that night and won't be home till about 9pm Mary
Hi Malin,
No worries - good to know re: just making the minimum. How many people actually participated?
I mainly wanted to remind you re: the Newsletter deadline. It's getting a lot of hits (close to a couple thousand this month), so useful if we're a go. One option would be to post it as tentative.
Whatever you think works is fine by me. If we're a go this month, we can host if you don't have anyone else.
Hi Malin,
Will there be a Recycling Depot in May?
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
