Why do I belong to a Transition Movement

I want to be sure I leave the planet a better place.  By getting  people committed to the Transition movement I feel I  will be leaving the planet in good hands.

I also do it for them !!!

Welcome to Transition Hendersonville

Statement of Intent -- Initiating Group, Transition Hendersonville

We have formed an Initiating Group for the Transition movement to inspire our community's resilience and self-reliance in the face of rising energy costs, climate change, and economic uncertainty.


Our focus will be to:


• Raise awareness in our community across all class and age barriers about our current predicament and create a vision of what could be possible through the Transition movement (through presentations, orientations, films, speakers, book study groups, skill workshops, and online tools such as Facebook, and a possible website or blog.)


• Cultivate existing resources within the community that relate to Transition and our group’s task


• Educate ourselves through various media (websites, books, DVDs, classes, etc.) on issues related to Transition


• Document and publicize our actions through various media


• Create needed funding through donations and small fundraisers


These actions are intended to lead to a groundswell of community action culminating in a Great Unleashing for Transition Hendersonville, where we will work creatively to make our community more resilient to meet future challenges through fostering local food production, meaningful work, and a more interconnected local economy.
