The Facts

What Is Transition Town Media?

The Facts


FreeStore
We run a FreeStore on State Street. All items in the store are free. You are welcome to come and take whatever you might use. In this way we keep things out of landfills, support a reuse ethic, and help meet each others needs without the use of money through a gift economy.

TimeBank
A volunteer-led initiative of Transition Town Media that strives to create a community-wide circle of giving to encourage people to volunteer their talents and receive, in return, help with their unmet needs.

Working Groups
Working groups research a specific need of the community and propose a creative local response to the challenges of rising energy prices, climate change and economic instability.
