The Village Repair branch of Gaiacraft is a local grassroots initiative growing in the mossy cedar rainforests of Mt. Elphinstone, British Columbia, Canada. In the Heart Gardens and surrounding downtown core of our coastal village, a unique community comes together to build foundations for a regenerative future. Here we can see social permaculture vignettes intended to inspire creative placemaking in small towns and villages around the world. Village Repair focusses on creating relationships, gathering places and habitat that promotes healthy interactions between people, animals, birds, reptiles, insects, plants, fungi and all other living and non-living links in the ecological community. As an activated social permaculture program and transition initiative, Village Repair hopes to inspire communities to redesign their own neighbourhoods into thriving, abundant and diverse ecosystems which support the web of life for all living and non-living things. Visioned by Delvin and designed by Lunaya, this community media platform includes a team of visionaries and new thinkers, artists and activists, conscious businesses and cultural creatives. Gratitude to Mia Van Meter, Eddit Hooker, and Mark Lakeman of City Repair in Portland for creating the placemaking movement that has wholeheartedly inspired this media platform.
Thank you! I will print them and if my wife allows to I’ll hang them on the wall of my house. By the way, THE PISCATAQUIS VILLAGE PROJECT have got their brand new net site now, I just got an email about it from Tracy Gayton yesterday: https://www.piscataquisvillage.org/

Yo Delvin,
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing this, I’d love to use these placemaking docs in my classes. Hope you’re well!
I cannot access the PDF link, not the website. Is the server up. Is there another way to access?
Hi Marilyn
Their server is down. I’ve put the file on our server, so you can now access via the link at top.
