I live with my fiance in a ‘not-so-green’ home in Sonoma, California, and we’re in the process of a green remodel. In addition to making the home more livable and energy efficient, the project goals also include creating a sustainable and beautiful ‘watershed-friendly’ landscape.
This blog will focus a bit more on the sustainable landscape elements because I’ll be more intimately involved with designing those features. Our fantastic eco-architect, Carol Venolia (http://www.naturalremodeling.com/), is working out the house design!
I’m hoping this will be a good way for me to keep track of decisions and processes, to share what I’m learning with others, and to get feedback from other intrepid green-remodelers.
