Profile Information

How are you currently involved in the Transition movement?
I am looking for a group in my area, in western Oregon.
In what ways do you identify with the Transition movement? Why are you interested?
I am a native of Oregon, I was born here, and raised here, although I had to work in California. My family grows fruit trees, and food, and made their own wine, and my family did organic gardening before it was popular. So, I was looking for a transition movement group here, to join, because when I learned about them, I found out we were thinking of doing the same things.
How can you help the growth/acceptance/vitality of the Transition movement? What can YOU teach us? What can your GROUP teach us?
I am not in a group yet, I am asking you, if you know of any in my area.
Your Favorite Books/Websites/Blogs/RSS Feeds for Information about the Transition Movement
I only found out about the transition movement through an article in ELLE Magazine, recently. I had not been able to contact the original group in England, because there are e-mail does not work on my e-mail.
Your Personal Website (if you have one)
http://I do not have one.
Official Voice Communication: Skype from http://skype.com/download Add LSquiresSkype to your Contacts.
I do not have this.
Suggestions you have for improving our Registration questions. Getting to know you better.
I am still trying to find a transition movement group in my area, and I have not been able to contact any central intelligence that knows about them. I am asking you guys, "do you know of any transition movement groups in western Oregon? In Eugene? Or Springfield? Or Lane County?" I think you're asking a lot of personal questions, for a website.

Welcome Dorothy! Great to see you here on the social networks for Transition U.S. and Welcome Les! Great to see you here on the social networks for Transition U.S. and Transition Oregon. You highlighted in your profile "... I am still trying to find a transition movement group in my area, and I have not been able to contact any central intelligence that knows about them. I am asking you guys, "do you know of any transition movement groups in western Oregon? In Eugene? Or Springfield? Or Lane County?"..." -- I'd encourage you to join the Newcomers group below and put your questions about these topics to David and the other members of that group. In addition click on GROUPS to see the groups we have registered so far. Pick one of your groups and set it up. Give it a name, a graphic, a description, and invite some people to join. Let David or me know when you have further questions.
