TransitionSC is presenting its first Reskilling Expo

Choose from a multitude of demos

on how to reduce food costs and conserve water.

There will be presentations on:

…beekeeping, fruit trees, propagation of culinary and medicinal herbs, backyard berries, chickens and ducks, canning, and foraging…

…edible green spaces/huertos concretos, roots, rhizomes and tubers, traditional compost…

…vermicompost, compost tea, anerobic compost, jam-making, bread-making, seed saving…

Explore the transition concepts of peak oil, climate chaos, and economics. Reflect on where your money works at a talk about local banking. Speak your mind and heart to one of our Keynote Listeners. Consider integrating sustainable living with activism to transform the structures driving environmental and social harm.
