FYI

Greenspots is a business that should be - and maybe will be. This is a Great Expectations idea for a Better Bloor in the Lansdowne and Bloor area. Greenspots has created a billboard with the Vine People and proposes to create a storefront project in one of the unused stores; where business has failed, commercial sites decayed and crack dealerships thrive.

Vine People installations now mark a seven sites that need attention.

Financial support from:
The Toronto Arts Council

Appreciation to the
Dupont | Bloor | Lansdowne, BIG community.

INDIGENOUS SEEDS

Greenspots encourages:
Wild seed information, collection and distribution
Green art interventions and projects
Accidental gardens

Vine People Sites
Vine People are ambassadors for green action: helping where needed.
Half human, half vine: the Vine People are based on local plants, trees and four species of vines. They mark areas that need attention by placing themselves, as public reminders, on problemed sites.

Vine People Are Not Terrorists
My sincerest apology for the terrible misunderstanding the Vine People project has unleashed.

B.I.G. Bloor Improvement Group
B.I.G advances the economic, physical, cultural and social life of the B.I.G. Bloor Street by creating opportunities and events that improve and celebrate the area. In planning is the BIG Festival that includes an environment focus with art-base green projects. www.BigOnBloor.com

Asphalt Gardens
Gardens of plants, leaves and flowers seed concrete city walkways and plazas.
