I'm always happy to answer questions, so no worries ")

Glad to be here with you, the more people working on helping themselves and others the better.

I should have looked at your ning site first, and I would not have needed to ask the question. I am familiar with the movement and Transition Towns but have not been a part of any group thus far - simply for lack of time because of related involvements. My goals and purposes are the same... Mimi

Yes, it is.

I came across the ning site about a year ago, after I read an article that Galen wrote about Rob Hopkins and transition towns. I was very excited to see that others where working on the same things I was concerned about.

Les Squires has been very helpful with the Missouri site. The potential to network with all of Missouri has been a lot of fun, very helpful and has helped me to be more hopeful ")

It's great to see the WFN going strong! Way to lead by example!

I also run a ning site called www.transitionmissouri.ning.com stop by and see the events I have listed and feel free to post them here on this site.

There are more and more people everyday who are realizing that it is better to make their own destiny through sustainable living. I hope that the transition site and the WFN site can work together to bring more and more people together.

The description of this group - Brother and Sister organizations that believe in the local sustainability movement - is why I feel this is the specific group on the WFN ning in which I want to participate... I am a loyal and involved member of Friends of the Garden and have been asked to represent FOG as their liaison with the local WFN Alliance. Our organizations have many mutual goals and purposes with regard to the sustainability movement locally. You are also invited to visit the FOG website and blog. The FOG blog is very active with important and useful information being posted daily. We have a faithful readership as our blog is not a stagnant blog but one that supplies a variety of information, as well as staying on top of breaking issues that affect all of us...
