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. 

Arbutus Pathway Project

Every Sunday morning volunteers come out to work on a future bike and walking path.  It’s part of creating a more active transportation network on Quadra.  Everyone welcome.

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.
