In the last couple months four members of the SB Seeds Committee attended TT trainings taught by founders of the movement in the Totnes and we are very excited to share and use tools we learned to help build this movement in Santa Barbara.

I posted a comment about Transition Town Ojai a few days ago, when MT first posted this, but it got lost in cyberspace.
Transition Towns are the wave of the sustainable future. Perhaps the Ojai Valley Green Coalition can sponsor a workshop on this.
