Transition Bay St Margarets is a suburban town initiative started in January 2011.  St Margarets Bay, Nova Scotia, presents a hybrid culture between newer residents who are either retirees or commuters into the Halifax city core, and long-time residents with livelihoods based on tourism, services or resources.

I buy organic food whenever I can, cook everything from scratch, have sold the tumble dryer, grow food in my yard, hope for an allotment, have kept chickens and will again.  I have three children, live in an ex-mining village in Co Durham and we have no CH or hot water except the shower.  We are owned by a cat, and have two demanding dogs.
