Description
Are you interested in growing your own food or starting a community kitchen? Do you have food skills you’d like to share with your neighbours?
Come to this lively evening of presentations by community groups from across Vancouver who are making their neighbourhoods more resilient, neighbourly and food secure.
Presenting groups will include recipients of the 2010 Greenest City Neighborhood grants, and others! There will even be a round of Food Jeopardy, courtesy of The Downtown Eastside Kitchen Tables Project!
From community potlucks and mobile produce markets to bulk buying clubs, it’s a bumper crop of great ideas.
