First, many thanks to blogger Kheris, of The Living Room in Rogers Park, for featuring our local Transition Town network on her blog.The Transition Town Movement is a social movement designed to relocalize business and production, particularly food production, and enable citizens to prepare themselves and their communities for the transition to low-imput, sustainable lifestyles as fossil fuel supplies become scarce and expensive.
There are two Transition Town events this week:
