About Sustainable Ottery

Ottery St Mary, Devon, United Kingdom
We are a group of local people working to create a sustainable community, a greener, healthier, more connected place to live, much less dependent on resources and solutions from 'out there'. What would you like Ottery St Mary to be like in 2020? We began from the view that our current resource hungry life style is unsustainable and that fossil fuels which supply us cannot last forever. It is our hunger and over consumption of such fuel that has led to the global warming crisis which we now face. We’re ordinary people who believe that by working together we can achieve amazing things. Our vision is to get the whole community involved in building a better future.

I am trying to resurect the idea of a project at Higher THorne Farm- I was involved in Ottery centre for sustainable living many years ago now- but perhaps the time is now ripe?
I am also working with an organisation who help people with learning problems- they have an 8 acre farm which I am hoping to get funding to grow food there. I was thinking it might then be linked to Ottery as a first step towards making OSM sustainable in veg/fruit etc
