Video: Preserve the Arbutus Corridor Green Space
Sign the petition here: https://tinyurl.com/pv85dbd
We, as community gardeners, respectfully request that Vancouver City Council move quickly to preserve the Arbutus Corridor and the community gardens as they provide organic food and supply local soup kitchens, promote the development of community, and moderate the effects of climate change.

Volunteers needed for video
Dear gardeners,
Dan is a director and producer here in Vancouver, and he has offered to produce a video to illustrate the potential loss of our garden plots. He needs fellow gardeners to appear in the film by simply going about their routines under his specific direction.
The goal is to contribute to a social media campaign to help create awareness around the current situation and help resolve the issues.
At this time, Dan needs to get shots of people working together and enjoying themselves in the gardens. He needs around 6-10 people and 30 minutes of their time.
He is also looking for 3 women of several generations (daughter, mother, grandmother).
Your contribution is essential, as Dan won’t be able to complete this video without your support!
If you are interested in volunteering for this initiative, please contact Dan directly using the following email address: danrocque@gmail.com
Thank you for your help!
