Does anyone know of Community Supported Agriculture in the Vancouver area?

Travelling to Vancouver in August, any help, advice about job availability for Community Service Work there?

• Hi! I was hoping someone might be able to give me some info surrounding the job market for Community Service Workers in Vancouver? I am an Irish girl who is moving to Vancouver for a year under the IEC scheme. I currently work in a homeless hostel in Dublin and was wondering what the job market for similar work in Vancouver would be like? Ideally i would love to apply for PNP in BC so if anyone had any ideas whether this area of employment would be suitable to apply for such (granted of course i get sponsorship from an employer :) ) , i would be really grateful! :) Also if i couldn't get a job doing what i do at the moment does anyone know any renowned fields (for e.g. bar work, hosting) where it would be easier for me to get sponsorship for PNP? Thanks so much, really hope someone can help! :)
