How are you currently involved in the Transition?

No

In what ways do you identify with the Transition movement? Why are you interested?

I am interested in self-sustaining communities, good gardening practices, open sharing of information, and lifelong learning.I started the Lummi Island Gardeners Network and am constantly in transition myself. I was a Master Gardener in CA and am currently a Whatcom Co. Master Gardener. I was also part of a Community Skills Bank in Ashland, OR (many years ago) and helped start the Ashland Community Co-op in 1971.

Do you have particular interests, skills, talents or resources you would like to bring to Transition Whatcom?

I would like to learn more about sustainable gardening practices.

In what neighborhood or part of the county do you reside?

Lummi Island

Where did you hear about Transition Whatcom and how did you find our community network website?

I was contacted this week by Wynne Lee, here on the island, about helping with a seed swap. She sent me two links (lummi Locavore and Transition Lummi), which led me to Transition Whatcom. I have heard about Transition Whatcom, but have been settling in from my CA transition and not thoroughly focused on all the groups that are working for sustainable communities and food growing.
