Come see how other homeowners near you have implemented green building methods,
materials, and technologies!
Twenty-one homes throughout Tompkins
County that feature renewable energy and/or
eco-friendly building practices will be open to
the public for self-guided tours during this twoday
event. Homeowners and/or builders will be
on-hand to discuss their work and answer
questions about solar energy, wind power,
geothermal, solar hot water, straw bale
construction, timber framing, non-toxic finishes,
local and reclaimed materials, and more.
