"Greenest Town In The Land" Project Launched

Happy New Year.

Last year saw transition hebden groups setting up lots of great projects, the food group is going from strength to strengh, getting access to land for food growing and has set up the 'hebveg' local organic veg box scheme. The energy group set up the 'greenest town in the land' project to get everyone in town to switch to a green energy supplier and has been working on an exciting new hydro project, the waste group put on lots of events including the successful 'give away free' day, and the local economy group held a packed event showcasing local sustainable businesses.

Lets hope 2012 is as successful, there will be a visioning day in March that everyone is welcome to where we will explore how we move forwards and make Hebden Bridge a sustainable town. Also HebVeg veg plot volunteer workdays have been announced, they are 25th - 26th Feb and 24th - 25th March. Contact us using the form at the bottom of this page if you would like to attend.
