Self sufficient living in Canada utilizing natural resources to grow fruit and vegetables in a dense forest. This week, I use fish remains as fertilizer to grow tomatoes and peppers and I bring in bales of hay and leaves from the forest to mulch my vegetable and fruit garden to preserve the rainwater that falls on the garden. Without mulch and organic material added to the garden beds, the water typically evaporates and drains through my sandy soil during our hot, humid summers. Because of the global pandemic and shutdown of the schools and the economy, I have changed my priorities to provide shelter and food to my wife and daughters until things return to normal. In addition to the food forest that I'm developing from previously raw and relatively unproductive forest, I am preparing my cabin for additional food production and food storage while building my firewood supply for the coming winters.

Walking in VanDusen Botanical Garden in vancouver. It was the perfect timeing to see autumn foliage and amazingly beatiful. This 4K 60fps video was taken with iPhone 11 Pro. -- In 1970 the Vancouver Foundation, the British Columbia provincial government, and the city of Vancouver signed an agreement to provide the funding to develop a public garden on part of the old Shaughnessy Golf Course. That garden, VanDusen Botanical Garden, is situated in the Shaughnessy neighbourhood of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada at the North West corner of 37th Avenue and Oak Street. It is named for local lumberman and philanthropist Whitford Julian VanDusen. The Botanical Garden opened to the public on August 30, 1975[1] and remains jointly managed by the Vancouver Park Board and the Vancouver Botanical Gardens Association (VBGA), similar to the operation of nearby Bloedel Conservatory. An administrative staff is bolstered by approximately 1200 non-gardening volunteers and six full-time unionized gardeners with seasonal interns assisting during the summer. The VBGA is responsible for membership, volunteering, education, the library, and development fundraising. VanDusen's volunteers have a 45-year history in the garden and often exhibit a proprietary connection to the trees, shrubs and annuals. Trained volunteer guides interpret the plant collection and the history of the garden to visitors on foot and in motorized golf carts from April through October (see web site for actual dates, the carts have a limited season). In addition to guiding tours, volunteers collect seeds of annuals and perennials (which they clean and package for sale in the garden shop and on the Internet). Other volunteers operate the information desk, produce dried flower arrangements, staff a large and very successful plant sale each spring, write and produce self-guided tours to hand out to visitors, package manure and compost for sale to local gardeners, and work with Park Board staff to install plant identification signs in the garden. The Garden covers 22 hectares (55 acres). In addition to displays of plants from all over the world, there is an extensive collection of native British Columbia (Northwest Coast) plants. A recently launched "re-wilding" outreach program aims to rescue and propagate native plants for reintroduction into Vancouver's regional parks. Although the garden's mission statement upholds the ideals of a botanical garden, an early decision not to partake in scientific research channeled funds and energy into garden construction and released the staff from the responsibility of building research collections or a herbarium. The VBGA conducts citizen science initiatives and works with local community partners and schools interested in on-site research. quoted from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VanDuse...

Perhaps one of the best transportation stories of 2016 comes from Vancouver, B.C. where they have achieved a 50% sustainable mode share (bike, walk, transit) a full four years earlier than goal (2020). Long traditionally a region that prides itself on transportation options and rejecting the freeway movement in the 1960's and 70's (still the only major city in North America that boasts no freeways within its core) what Vancouver has done is set an impressive goal to have at least two-thirds of all trips by sustainable ways by 2040. To read up more on the goals: http://vancouver.ca/streets-transport... Streetfilms was lucky to be at the ProWalk ProBike ProPlace 2016 this Summer where we got to hang with many of the smartest folks in the world and meet many of Vancouver's coolest citizens including former Vancouver Chief Planner, Brent Toderian, the Manager of Transportation Planning, Dale Bracewell and Melissa and Chris Brunlett, the husband-wife activist combo behind Modacity, who do so many great things, I'll just make you visit their website to enjoy their journalism and art. When you're immersed in the city's wonder for three days getting around the city by Mobi bike share, foot, taxi, bus, SkyTrain, SeaBus and more, it's no wonder it is such a great multi-modal city for living. I hope our Streetfilm provides just a taste of that.
