Post #1001 Gardens EVERYWHERE in the city!

YES! YES!YES!!

Let this be true, that everyone's yard turns into a garden. Woot!! That in 10 years there will be gardens with food everywhere and green everywhere and we will have to tell kids stories of a time in the past when there was such ignorance and silliest that people were not allowed to raise chickens, bees and have gardens.

Watch and let's make this a reality!! Please let it be so, after yesterdays crushing news that the city lost it's battle with CP and Arbutus Corridor Gardens will be destroyed. :(

Update: Nov 5/2012 We are still doing well 290 views but it would be nice to get more. We've got 10 days left. Please if your friends haven't seen our video and are into "green" "gardens" "organics" or are interested in working on a farm in exchange for food and shelter or have a farm and need workers then you need to see our video to see What WWOOF is!!

Update Oct 27th, we're doing okay, think we have 229, it's okay because the videos viewed are pro-rated on the time they've been up so we still have a really good chance of winning!! I'm staying positive. Thanks for your help!

*Update Oct 4th 7 pm Mexico time- I just wanted to correct something "I just need views", not likes- I am sorry for the confusion, if you like it too on Youtube that's awesome but just if you watch it that is good enough. Gracias!! So Far today I've got 48 views so we are getting there, poco by poco!! Gracias!

So I just got the approval for my entry into the WWOOF IS Contest at WWOOF Canada. They be posting my entry next week as an entry came in just before mine and they have to try make it fair that everyone gets a same exposure.

In the meantime I could REALLY USE YOUR HELP!! Can you please watch my video. I have a chance to win $1000 and that would really go a long way as we are in Mexico at the moment.

I need at least 1600 views* just to catch up to the leaders. I know it sounds like a lot, but it's a great video. See for yourself. :)

We had a GREAT TIME WWOOFING!! We LEARNED SO MUCH!
Anyways please check out our video below it shows it much better than me trying to tell you!!
Please can I ask you to share it with your friends. Pretty Please. We'd appreciate it so much and I worked very hard on this video and I totally believe we deserve it. There are some other good ones you should check them out too! http://www.wwoof.ca/VideoContest Okay may the best video win!!

Been checking into Wwoofing. Really love this idea and want to go and experience this with my daughter. I think this would be an awesome experience and a great way to experience more of Canada. What the heck is Wwoofing What is Wwoofing? This link will tell you what it is all about. This is what they are about though. Here is their mission statement

World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms

...living, learning & sharing organic lifestyles

Mission Statement

Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms, Canada (WWOOF Canada™) is part of a world-wide effort to link volunteers with organic farmers and growers, promote an educational & cultural exchange, and build a global community who are passionate about sustainable organic stewardship of food, animals and land while respecting nature and protecting natural resources.

So you can doing Wwoofing in Canada, or the US or Latin America, I saw some on Facebook for Israel and Switerzland so it is International.

I really want to learn more about living off the grid while my child is very interested in animals, especially chicks and cows. I love herbs and herb gardening so I want to pursue this.

So I am cooking up a plan. Not sure how I am going to implement yet but as soon as I do I will let you know. If you have done Wwoofing, I would love to hear about your experience or if you have been the host I would love to hear about that side too.

Oh, there is a contest too! If your a wwoofer or thinking about wwoofing, check this out. http://www.wwoof.ca/VideoContest
