Exploring the Food System on the West Side: Summer Tour Series

Westside Waste Tour
Wednesday, July 29th 6:30pm
to 8:30 pm

In 2007, about 3.6 millon tonnes of solid waste was generated in Metro Vancouver. Current initiatives like recycling, backyard composting, municipal leaf and yard waste composting are diverting over 50% of those materials. Metro Van has adopted the Zero Waste Challenge and hopes to get to 70% diversion. So how are we doing waste-wise on the west side? Come poke around in back alleys, garbage cans and compost bins with Garden Heart Production. They’ll look at how grocery stores and restaurants are managing their waste. Are any of them composting? If not, what are the barriers? They’ll see a unique mid-scale composting system designed a local co-op housing development. They’ll check out some backyard bins too; 46% of Vancouverites are already composting in their backyards – many of those west siders! Learn about food recovery programs and innovative initiatives designed to waste not. Find out what you can do in your own backyard to reduce
edible and inedible food waste.

Food system tours $35 each. Register at info@gardenheart.com.

Presented by Garden Heart Productions (compostdiary.com)
and the Westside Food Security Collaborative (kitshouse.org/ link on community)

Natural Building School expands again...
Returning for a 5th year in a row from June 29-August 14!

The Natural Building program has expanded yet again to 7 weeks of practical, hands-on training. Not only do you learn how to make your home green, you learn how to do it yourself!

Based at the Kimberley Campus of College of the Rockies, at the Natural Building School you are involved in several exciting projects while enjoying the beautiful surroundings. Learn how to create buildings and living spaces that are attractive, natural, and sustainable. You can also choose to take the 5-day Straw Bale Building Workshop rather than the entire 7-week program.

The Natural Building program is just what you need in order to make improvements to your existing home or one that you plan to build. The best part is that you will have the skills to do it yourself!
