University of Victoria Field School and Community Feast
community · August 24, 2025 · Community Hall
Seventeen University of Victoria students will participate in a two-week field school on Denman Island in August 2025, focusing on themes like mutual aid and collective decision-making. They will coordinate a community feast on August 24th at 6:00pm at the Community Hall, partnering with Farm to Family to source local food. The event is family-friendly, accepts donations, and offers gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan options.
This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
