Our Community Solutions event in Whangarei city last Thursday was a big success. There were 90 people in the room, so it felt pretty packed. We had stands set up around the room, a food growing table, an education table, an alternative fuel and transport table and a Transition Town table. The tables were well presented with lots of interesting ideas and resources.
