Featured Projects
Grow Together Garden
Twice a week gardeners get together on a property in the south end to grow food together. It’s a great way to learn and have fun. Anyone is welcome to join in.
Food Preservation Equipment Library
Borrowing food preservation equipment has resumed after a brief interruption while the Library moved to a new location.
Quadra Tool Library
This project is waiting for a new team, a location, building, and a process for borrowing. Click here if you’re interested in joining this team!
Community Action
We’ve identified nine areas in which effective community action can be taken: food security, water security, practical water solutions, energy self-sufficiency, do-it-yourself support, a free/re-store, local reuse and recycling, transportation, and fundraising. These action teams have identified and completed numerous specific projects, and many are underway. Other projects are in the planning stages, and still others await focused discussion, refinement, or funds. Use the links below to explore any of our action teams and their projects in more detail.
