The Go Green Home is a living laboratory of green design, materials and innovation. We’ve deconstructed an existing single-family home — taking it apart board by board, nail by nail–and donated and recycled 95% of it! We’ve studied the sun, the winds and the neighborhood, and incorporated everything into the design and build of our new home. Plus we’re greening it all — from solar roof panels to recycled content countertops in the cutting edge cook’s kitchen. We’ll take you with us, step by step, updating frequently with journal entries and photos of our progress. Visit www.TheGoGreenHome.com for more information!
