Transition in Lenoir by Laurie Elian
After
hearing Robb and Jacqui’s presentation on Transition, three Lenoir residents
are forming a steering committee for their community. “I’m so excited about Transition!” says
Laurie. “John and I have been talking a
lot about the future. We agreed that
things couldn’t continue the way they are;
now we have a common vision for where to go from here in a practical, everyday
way. Transition gives us hope.”
John,
who has always preferred gardens over lawns, is interested in connecting with
other people who want to be involved in Transition.
“Our
success will require people with a variety of skills to work together,” he
says. John is a chef, a carpenter, and a
fisherman, among other talents.
Laurie

nature to experience it’s beauty as well as its healing power.

with like-minded people toward a brighter future.
