Transition Town Totnes Taking positive action together in a changing world. TTT is the first Transition town that inspired a global movement.

This dynamic, community-led and run charity is about building our resilience for a future with less cheap energy and a changing climate. TTT is a local collective of mainly volunteers supported by a small staff team, who come together to work on projects. Anyone can be involved and it’s not a 'membership' organisation. Everyone has something to offer and people who get involved are from a wide range of backgrounds, ages, and experiences. Our projects and groups are ever-changing and evolving, and we always welcome new people. Our work ranges from increasing low impact affordable housing, sharing skills, creating livelihoods, reducing energy costs and carbon emissions, growing our local food economy and working in partnership with other projects such as ATMOS and Food in Community. To find out more take a look at some of our projects, see our calendar to find an event, keep up to date with our regular news updates, sign up for our monthly bulletin or drop us a line.

The beginning of a series of educational events to help learn about Yeoland and develop wider ecological knowledge together.

It all starts with the soil so this is where we’re beginning...

Join Karl Ritz, a professor of Soil Ecology, on Sunday 1st November from 12pm, who will be guiding us in this family-friendly, interactive day of soil exploration.

At 12pm we’ll take a 1 hour interactive walk around the land, learning about the soil of Yeoland with the knowledge of Karl. Following this is a series of pre-bookable donation-based soil lab workshops. Max 4 people per session so book early. The sessions will include an immersive exploration into soil life through a microscope.

Devon Grows Flax is about to begin an exciting new stage! Last year we grew, retted, and processed our flax together. This year we are taking the story a step further to share with Devon what we can do with flax.

✨Join us on Saturday 10th of October at Ambios, 10am-3pm drop in. Link to details in bio. ✨

Our celebration activities…

· Learn the story of the project this year, and how weaving the community cloth and heritage research inform the Devon-wide exhibition next year.
· Bring and process your home-grown flax or use our practice flax if you didn’t grow any.
· Meet the spinners who are spinning our flax into linen yarn, see demonstrations and the equipment they use.
· Meet the flax ambassadors who will be starting Devon Grows Flax projects in their own towns next year.
· Learn to make useful products out of flax.
· Bring your children along and let them join in the activities!

Donate your flax!
Do you have flax you would like to gift our spinning group?
Devon grown flax will be spun and woven into a Community Cloth for exhibition all over Devon next year. Bring it along on the day or make arrangements with Viktoria ([email protected]).

We look forward to celebrating all things flax with you this Saturday 💙
