Ted Montgomery, a resident of the Ten Stones community in Charlotte, won a gift certificate donated by Home Ecology in Shelburne, in the December drawing by Transition Charlotte. All Charlotte residents who have participated in the Transition Charlotte Community Asset Survey are eligible for the drawing.
“Having developed and founded Ten Stones, I find that the idea of sharing community resources resonates with me because that’s what we do here,” Ted said when he learned he had won the drawing. “The Transition movement also reflects so much of my attitude in my architectural practice in the use of energy resources, by optimizing thermal envelopes and local sourcing of labor and resources.”
Home Ecology is a green general store based in Shelburne and has been owned by business partners Holly Rae Taylor and Anne Taylor (no relation!) since 2009.
The Home Ecology website says, “Home Ecology isn’t just another green store: we offer everything from yoga mats to eco-pet beds and body care, but we have a clear focus on the food cycle. That’s why we carry products for growing food, preserving food, preparing and serving food, and of course composting completes the cycle. We believe that encouraging a full and healthy food cycle is a great way to promote environmental and personal well-being.”
