- **Event Name**: Community Builders Forum ~ Land, Food, and Water Update
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 26 Jan, 2026 at 06:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Join us for a follow-up to the October Land, Food &amp; Water Forum, focused on turning shared ideas into practical community action. 

We will begin with short updates on what’s moved forward since the last gathering, then break into small focus groups designed to move a few key priorities ahead.

Participants will self-select into one of four focus groups:
• Food security – community crop planning, CSAs, and sharing with the Food Bank
• Compost &amp; soil – shared space, bulk composting, and soil creation
• Water – practical water capture, storage, and crowd-sourced solutions
• Knowledge &amp; labour sharing – skills, farm help, workforce, and traditions

Each group will identify 1–3 realistic action items, name stewards, and outline next steps that can begin within the coming months.

This forum is for growers, organizers, volunteers, and anyone interested in strengthening Mayne Island’s land, food, and water systems. Everyone eats food after all! 

Sunday, January 26 | 6:30–8:30 PM
Montrose Local

All are welcome.
________________________________________________________________


The Community Builders Forum is a monthly gathering for anyone who wants to help make Mayne Island a more connected, sustainable, and livable place for all. 

Each Forum will focus on a specific theme and invite key community builders to share their knowledge and field questions from the group, and then open up into a collaborative dialogue focused on asking questions, taking action, and sharing ideas.  Come to share what you’re working on, find collaborators, table new ideas and actions, and build on strengths, uncover resources, and take the next small steps where your time and talents can make a real difference.

Building connections: that’s the name of the game.
