How are you currently involved in the Transition?: i am working on permacture, raising livestock, building gardens for people becoming more self reliant and less oil dependant.

In what ways do you identify with the Transition movement? Why are you interested?: in my early 20s i started studying about peak oil, past & present world events, history, politics, world economics and conspiracies. My studys led me to a mind state where all i did was focus on all the world atrocities I took action by spreading doom and gloom it was totally unproductive. since That didnt work out for me i started putting my energy into what i wanted instead of what i didnt want.I wanted to live off the earth directly I started growing a garden then Three years ago my father and i went to england and saw transition founder bob hopkins in totnes which alongside others inspired and got me into many on growing projects involving self reliance. Ive just been doing it mostly by myself and with a core group of friends. we meet one day a week and work on our gardening projects. Im joining to connect with the community that shares the same interests. to share talents resources intrests and skills.

Do you have particular interests, skills, talents or resources you would like to bring to Transition Whatcom?: lam an arborist, from fruit tree pruning to climbing large trees and thinning them to let more light in for your garden or complete tree removals I also offer spurless climbing on your trees for low impact. I can teach tree climbing techniques and a variety of different knots for many different uses. I have a 10yard dump truck that i use for building gardens that can be also be used for other hauling services. I like to build gardens for people I can turn your lawn into a food garden in one day.
