TRANSITION TOWNS STATE COLLEGE PORTFOLIO

INTRODUCTION TO TRANSITION TOWNS STATE COLLEGE

Transition Towns State College and Transition Towns Bald Eagle Valley are official TT initiatives as of April 14, 2010. We are the 63rd and 64th official initiatives in the US and numbers 294 and 295 worldwide.

We are located in Centre County, exact center in Pennsylvania, in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains. This is an area of high, forested ridges and broad, fertile valleys full of natural beauty. We enjoy four full seasons and abundant renewable resources. Our area is the home of Amish communities and the campus of one of the nation’s largest universities. Our potential for self-sufficiency is considerable.

TTSC had a great public forum on the subject of Marcellus shale. Sixty people, two great presenters and clearly positive test of the forum concept. We will be starting workshops on The Transition Companion in November.

Hi Joshua,

I gather you have been following events on Katherine's excellent blog.

The food security groups she formed and the Marcellus Shale Forum promise to add a huge burst of energy to sustainability in Centre County in the coming months.

I met a young couple a few weeks ago but didn't get their names.  He is going to Michigan for a post-doc in sociology and I gathered she worked with you at PCO.                                      Bill Sharp

You're trucking along...wonderful to see. Sorry I've been tied up at our Farm and PCO, much going on at both...hope to get back in the loop!

 

Joshua

Transition Towns State College, please take a look at the new section called SEARCH RESULTS and let me know if you think this selection is representative of the great work you all are doing in PA.  Bill posted a comment a bit earlier and it improved the search criteria tremendously.  Thanks Bill.  TIA the rest of you.

I've been behind on almost everything garden-wise this year, one problem after another, my great success has been in developing a number of new beds including 5 raised beds so far, and I hope to add 3 more before the year is out.

Best veggie discovery so far - amish sugar snap peas, vining peas instead of the smaller format I usually plant - very productive, very very tasty, I can't stop eating them right off the vine.

The list of problems is too long to mention lol.
Comment by Bill Sharp on June 14, 2011 at 6:42pm

Time flies!

Hopefully gardens are in and doing well for this year.  Rain in central PA put a lot of us off schedule but we are catching up.  The Garden Starters demonstration gardens, four raised beds in Millbrook Marsh Nature Centre in State College, are done.  We did square foot gardening, tomatoes, herbs and three sisters.

Transition Centre is now a Pennsylvania nonprofit corporation.  The web site, www.transitioncentre.org, has been almost completely redone and will tell you the story.  Bottom line is that we need to get a whole lot more Transition Towns up and running.  But there is more.  Take a look

Transition Towns State College has a new steering group and is pulling together an energy reduction focused program which should unfold this fall.  Basic idea is that the solution to most of our problems today is to reduce energy demand.  That’s not a little bit, not changing light bulbs, but a lot.  The US uses just about twice the energy per capita we should – for a start.  This may not make the growth champions happy but it would give us the opportunity to build a whole new, functional and sustainable economy if we choose to seize the day.
