Boulder County's EAT LOCAL! Resource Guide
With the support of the Boulder County government, Transition Colorado publishes the print and online editions of Boulder County's Eat Local! Resource Guide, which provides listings of the food producers, CSAs, farmers' markets, restaurants, and organizations that comprise the Boulder County organic foodshed. The Guide also provides informative content to help Boulder County residents become more informed and active in our local food community.

We update the online version of the Guide throughout the year, and welcome your input and suggestions. With your help, we can make this the most comprehensive listing of local food producers available.

There are still sponsorship opportunities available for the Guide and the 2010 EAT LOCAL! Campaign. For more information, contact Bill Sutton ( or 303-494-1521).

Transition Times :: Colorado Edition
Transition Times is an evolving global/local news source reporting and interpreting the events and trends of our era, covering: a) the story of the evolutionary transition humanity is making from adolescence to adulthood; b) the story of humanity’s response to the extraordinary global challenges and opportunities that we face; c) the story of the emergence of a new culture of Transition on this planet.

Our emphasis is essentially two-fold. The first is to provide information and perspective on the primary challenges of our era, and the second is to spotlight inspiring and visionary signs of humanity rising to the occasion — whether as individuals, neighborhoods, communities, organizations, or nations.

Currently there is no widely-available publication that gives ample coverage to issues of relocalization, food quality/security, healthy and sustainable business practices, and social responsibility and social justice, or efforts to deal locally with peak oil and climate change, reduce consumption, develop energy and economic alternatives, and build community. These are among the issues that Transition Times will address.

Wherever necessary, Transition Times will seek to support the development of original content, utilizing both known and little-known authors. Wherever possible, we will aggregate the best of existing content (including news, commentary, weblogs, multimedia, etc.) and bring it into Transition Times pages.

If you have a story to contribute or would like to discussing publishing a local edition of Transition Times in your area, contact Michael Brownlee at .

We hope to see you online soon!
