1st. Entry- Green Living Tips


Hooray! We have our first entry for the
"Green Living Tips Contest"!!!


It comes from Hallie Sheaffer with Keller Williams an Eco Friendly Realtor in Asheville.

You can get in touch with her at ecoagentasheville.com. or 828-771-2347


1. Fill in cracks less than 1/4" with caulk and greater than 1/4" with "Great Stuff" to air seal your house and make it more comfortable.

2. Air seal fireplaces- a huge source of energy loss- with Fireplace drafts topper.

3. Attic stairs are another major source of energy loss- build a box of insulation to cover attic stairs.

4. Eat local food to save transporation energy. What can be more local than gathering wild edibles around your home? Attend a wild edibles course to learn more.

5. A solar water heating system is one of the best and most practical ways to invest in renewable energy. They usually pay for themselves in 4-5 years.


Good Job Hallie! And, Thanks for taking part in our Green Living Tips Contest.
