A great evening last night at the
Transition Harborough AGM. A great vegan dinner at
The Greenhouse with excellent company from the Transition Harborough supporters. We were joined by Ben and Sam from
Greenfox Community Energy Co-op with whom we exchanged ideas and information about what they do and the possibilities for the
lottery funded
Sustainable Harborough Challenge with
Transition Harborough's partners.
The highlight was a fascinating presentation by Chris Stoate from the
Allerton Project which researches, farms commercially, and influences policy in terms of sustainability and the trade offs between agricultural production, wildlife support, and game management. Chris is also a trustee of the
Welland Rivers Trust which means there is a shared interest with Transition Harborough because of the
Trust's work in and around Market Harborough which involves a project to the value of £500,000.
After an exciting year for
Transition Town Market Harborough, "The best" said Chair/Facilitator Rev Brian Davis quoting US President Barack Obama, "is yet to come".
