Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities
VV functions as one large neighbourhood food network by helping foster community food resilience. Our members are active throughout neighbourhoods in Vancouver, with a common interest/love for food. The VV Neighbourhood Food Network works on projects, coordinating gardens, seed saving, hosting workshops and having fun! It’s all about strengthening our local food webs while coming together around food. Examples of VV Food Network activity include: putting on the Westside Food Festival, workshops on Brewing Homemade Kombucha, Growing Your Own Microgreens, and making Kimchi, and community potlucks! VV is an active member of Vancouver Neighbourhood Food Networks, a group of 15 different Food Networks through Vancouver.
See the Neighbourhood Food Network subtab page for an overview of VV`s Neighbourhood Food Networks (NFN's), specific interest food groups (community gardening, seed libraries/seed saving, etc., and our other food related activities. For additional past and present Food and food related activities, please visit Networks & Projects (Demo Village, Permaculture Village, Zero Waste, etc.)
Other pages with food related content include: Neighbourhood Villages, Blogs, Food Forum (under blog tab), Drop-in Spaghetti Nights, and under the events tab: Events (all), Food Events/Workshops, Gardening Events/Workshops, Workshops, and Potlucks.
