Have you considered buying or building a Green, Sustainable or Solar home in your area? Are you sitting back wondering why there is not more Green activity in your area?
Well, chances are that there are builders and homeowners in your area that have found out what the advantage is of building and Eco, Energy Efficient and Healthier home-you may just not know about it.
The America's Solar Energy Society puts on a National Tour every year for this exact reason. In various cities across the Nation they host a Tour of Homes for consumers to see in person the benefits and give them the opportunity to meet the Leading Builders and Solar/Renewable Energy Vendors in the area.
You will find a wide variety of homes that have a variety of different attributes. Green is what ever shade you want it to be. You can choose what features are most important to you and customize your home with those benefits. So, don't miss out on this opportunity to find out what is going on in your city!
If you would like to see the tour sheet and what cities will be on there, you can follow this link:
Many cities will be having this tour on October 6th, 2007 however, there will be tours from September through November. It looks as though there are 50 states on that list, it does not look like any one was left out.
If you happen to go to one in your area, be sure to come back and let me know how it went. Photos are always welcome. :)
A BIG THANK YOU to Dena Stevens for bringing this event to my attention!
Fergetabotit! We are here to educate people, aren't we?
Stephanie,
Thanks for the great information - I think green building is a trend that will continue to grow. I wish I could go to one of these but that weekend is booked already.
Hey, how is the Sept challenge going? (I know different post) But for the folks reading this - the solar tour might make for some great posts for the challenge!
Stephanie, you should drop some BIG names, not mine. But thanks for the mention
