The Lewiston Auburn area Transition Town and Permaculture Meetup is to help you become more self-sufficient. Our goal is to reduce our use of fossile fuels, and to develop a self-sustaining community in the Lewiston/Auburn area. We will learn from each other ways to effectively increase our resilience in food production, use of local resources, the manufacturing of needed items. Most importantly, we will develop a tight community where we can rely on each other's talents and gifts.

    "If you are buying cage free eggs from Wal-Mart, Hannaford's etc, I would say, "beware." Watch this video http://www.youtube.co... Good rule of thumb is that if you can't see the chickens laying your eggs, don't buy."
