- well i have to say there is not anything i have read on your website that did not make me smile! although i haven't much experience i am eager to help in any capacity. i have an especially strong interest in urban agriculture, adore potlucks and have always believed if everyone vitalized their community we would all live well and safe.

And what knowledge, skills, resources or other assets can you bring to the mix? (Don't be bashful!)

Misty,
Welcome to Village Vancouver! Your enthusiasm is heartening, and we know you'll find an outlet for it here.
Your next stop is to join the West End Transition Village by clicking here and clicking the Join button. The West End is planning a potluck soon and is also holding a food network meeting in early April. There are lots of people already growing food on roofs, balconies, and even inside across the West End. There is even enough to share around....if you know the right people.
And now you do.
Pitch in with your ideas, and let your neighbours help you realize your dreams.
Randy
