Last weeks Transition Drinks were well attended and we had a consistent core of people and a few new faces. I enjoyed the mix and new connections were forged and we learned about each other. James told us about his mushroom growing business idea and I am going to send him some details of local businesses and contacts who might be interested and help him grow his business. Helen and Cleo who moved from Hackney told us about their work there with community gardens and Transition Hackney and would like to get involved in something like garden share. I’ll send them the details but lets get them some time to upack first:). Ian gave us more details of the Food Swap he is planning and invited people to attend, volunteer and bring produce. I have told the group about the initial outline of the Apple Weekend. All in all a nice and successful evening. I will see you next month 29th September.
