November 15, 1-4 PM, location: 1312 Bay St., Bellingham (American Museum of Radio and Electricity). Heard of Transition Whatcom and want to know more? Enthusiastic about Transition to a less energy-dependent community and ready to put your commitment into real action? Willing to initiate some resilience-building in your neighborhood but don’t know where to start? If you’ve talked the talk and wanting to do more walking the walk, join up with others who are putting their commitment to Transition-ing into action! So many people have said, "We're ready to get going!" so this interactive event will provide information about Transition projects already underway in Whatcom County and let you know how you can participate. There will be breakout sessions to connect with others in your neighborhood or area that are also committed to reducing energy dependence, and to discuss how you can work together, perhaps by starting your own Transition initiatives and/or projects. For example: neighborhood gardens, tool libraries, food resource mapping, edible perennials planted in public places, seed swapping, backyard chicken raising, skill sharing, crop sharing, learning-from-elders, kids' gardens, mini-CSAs, local currency, and more. Bring your own ideas! Download the poster here; Event announcement here: http://transitionwhatcom.ning.com/events/lets-walk-the-walk Co-sponsored by Sustainable Bellingham.
