Neighourhood groups in Totnes explain how the award-winning Transition Town Totnes was just the start of plans from a community orchard, clothes swaps, gardening days to film clubs, saving money, cutting carbon and strengthening their neighbourhoods. Starting with only 2 groups of neighbours, now they are 56 to co-ordinate recycling efforts, share seeds, dig community gardens, organize swaps to exchange belongings, invest in solar energy, make community meals and plan a fruit tree orchard.
