Transition Towns
Submitted By
Gail Darrell


What: Transition Towns


Where: Totnes England – launched in 2008, Barnstead, New Hampshire - not yet launched.


Why: To look at life Beyond Oil and work together to create a sustainable community.


When: Now.


How: You decide.


A small group of ten people who live in Barnstead have been meeting for the last 6 weeks to consider how to best prepare for the inevitable increase in the price of oil, the impacts of climate change and increasing concerns over food quality.


Following in the footsteps of a worldwide movement called Transition Towns, we have been brainstorming about several possible ways to express what we see as a need for gradual transition away from our dependence on oil. No one knows exactly when the price of oil will skyrocket as supplies dwindle, but we do know one thing for certain; we do not have an inexhaustible supply and we should adjust our living situations to get ready for when it occurs, rather than waiting for the moment of crisis to begin planning.


We are compiling information and invite participation in this project from the public.


We look forward to the first day of our local Farmer’s Market in June, date and location to be announced.


Next six week session of meetings of the Transition group will be announced in the paper. For more information call Gail at 269-8541.

Eileen Murley and Bob LaRoche.


The benefit breakfast held on Saturday, May 1st for Andy Houle was a huge success due to the generosity of our community. It was amazing to see almost 200 people come out in support of Andy and enjoy the delicious breakfast prepared by ‘the kitchen crew’ of volunteers.


A very special thank you to The Barnstead Country Store, Associated Grocers, Center Barnstead Christian Church, First Congregational Church of Pittsfield, P & M Market, Jack’s Pizza, Kidder’s Repair, The White Buffalo, the Verrill family of White Oak Road, and numerous anonymous donors for their generous contributions towards the success of this endeavor.
