Transition Towns

When author and environmentalist Bill McKibben visited Hardwick, Vermont in October 2008, he offered the following comments:

"After spending a day in Hardwick, I feel a great burst of pleasure and possibility. Deep and transformative things are happening here. Hardwick has all the pieces of a healthy food system connected and ready to fall into place, and is as far ahead in sustainable agriculture as any place in the country."

I just visited there in October 2011….and I agree. Hardwick is a town in transition. And, much like Hardwick, Mount Shasta, CA is also a town in transition.

The Transition...
