Welcome to Sustainable Berea.

Please Visit our website at http://www.sustainableberea.org



The mission of Sustainable Berea is to assist in the development of a sustainable community. Sustainable Berea is a group of residents of Berea, Kentucky and surrounding areas who work together to develop stronger households, neighborhoods and community in the face of imminent threats to global sustainability including peak oil, global climate change, sky-rocketing national debt, rapid population growth, and the destruction of ecosystems worldwide.

Sustainable Berea is a member of the Relocalization Network that supports Local Post Carbon Groups as they work to develop and implement the strategy of relocalization in their communities.

We recognize that Berea has a wealth of assets that can form the basis of a sustainable community, foremost among them the skills and knowledge of its citizens. By working together we can make our community stronger household by household and neighborhood by neighborhood, and in the process regain some of the community values that we have lost.
