Teach, Learn, Share
Bookbinding, zine-making! I'm involved in the art/craft & feminist communities in toronto & can give you all sorts of info about related things.
Also: I've done a lot of WWOOFing (volunteering on organic farms) which I think goes hand in hand with CS, and I'd love to share resources and tips with new people.
