Engaging organizations with individuals of like minds to strengthen everyone’s efforts in preserving the unique qualities of Floyd County's history, heritage, and natural environment.

"When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe."
John Muir, (1838-1914) naturalist and conservationist My First Summer in the Sierra (Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1911)

Tour of 3 homes  featuring:


Summer and winter passive solar set-up and other conserving techniques to control building temperature
Re-purposed lumber
Building design that takes advantage of natural use of sun and wind 
Carbon footprint
Interior surface finishes that promote energy conservation and non-invasive effects on health of occupants

Efficient lighting
Water treatment and use
Exterior finishes and roofing 
Use of locally made products

Our home owners told their stories about their journeys through the designing and building process. Great conversation with the gracious home owners and the fantastic opportunity to examine the features they implemented. They showed how they provided comfort and peace of mind for their families because of their decreased reliance on traditional sources for heating, cooling, lighting their homes.
