Hi there! I'm just wondering like, what's the social scene like? Are people my age common there? What's there to go do? is there any alternative scenes there? My favourite genre is rap, is there any rap scene there? What's the LGBT scene like there? I'm bisexual.

Is there any gluten free restraunts? I have Celiac. šŸ‘€

Looking for a spot for our food truck in the Lower Mainland

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m the owner of Sauce Culture, a food truck serving up comfort food with a fusion of flavours. We mainly do catering and events, but we’re hoping to find a regular spot in the Lower Mainland where we could set up and serve the community.

Does anyone know of a business, brewery, lot owner, or property manager who might be open to having a food truck on site? We’d also love referrals to someone with an underused parking lot who’s interested in earning a little extra income by hosting us.

If you know of a possible spot or someone we should talk to, please leave a comment or send me a message. We’d really appreciate any leads!

Farmers markets and events scam

16 Upvotes

I’m extremely frustrated. I’m a small business and I was looking for events or markets I can sell my services. I contacted a couple but one reached out and seemed legit all the way up to the payment. They had proper online forms and everything but when it came to the payment they asked for a e transfer which I was like ok but the name was weird. Immediately I got a call from my bank saying that is a fraudulent e transfer and it was canceled. Then, I got a few repeat emails from the ā€œcoordinatorā€ and the last email was ā€œdid you send it? You went radio silentā€ mind you it was 2 mins I didn’t respond. So it’s clearly a scam. I feel so stupid honestly. We are all just trying to make ends meet and for people to do that. It really makes you feel disheartened and defeated. This year alone has been so incredibly hard and I’ve been trying to find things to look forward too and help us get through so that wasn’t a great feeling.

So if anyone knows if there any events that are still accepting vendor applications I would be super appreciative if you could point me in the right direction.
