再生ボーウェン島(旧ボウェン・イン・トランジション)
Regenerative Bowen Island, formerly called Bowen in Transition, has been in existence since 2010, has been mostly inactive since the pandemic, and now has only two ongoing initiatives, the Fix-It Fair (twice a year) and the Bowen Island Food Resilience program (operating a small regen-ag farm and orchard). Prior to the pandemic, it ran and sponsored many programs such as:
• Annual Sustainability Tour / Field Trip
• Tree Planting and Permaculture Events
• Forward Focus Film Series and Transition Library
• Youth in Transition Project
• Canning & Preserving Events
• Community Currency Project: Bowen Bucks (on hiatus)
• Workshops & Games: Resilient Communities, Inner Transition, Meaningful Livelihoods, Sharing Economy
• Climate Change/Carbon Footprint Updates
• Energy Audits and other Renewable Energy Actions
• Liaison with other Transition and Community Groups
• Fix-it Fairs
• Sharing Circles
• The Bowen Green Guide – (currently down to be updated) with resources on Local Food, Transportation, Waste, Water, Local Economy, Gardening & Landscaping, House & Home, Green Consumerism, Resilient Community, Health & Wellness, Arts & Culture
Our current Board consists of 4 Directors: Dave Pollard, Jacqueline Massey, Jackie Bradley, and Paola Qualizza.
