Earth Day turns 40 today! April 22nd, 2010

Senator Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin promoted the first Earth Day event on April 22, 1970. On that day, 40 years ago, more than 20 million Americans gathered and demonstrated for a healthy, sustainable environment.

If you have an interest in building Green, I’d love the opportunity to introduce you to Preservation Homes, “The Green Builder.” The builder, Jeff Auberger and his team, was recently featured on a informative Builder’s Spotlight television program.

We’ve partnered with several local subdivisions to offer home and lot packages. You can build a new Green home with prices starting in the low 200’s. The GeoThermal Tax Credits offer 30% rebates for installing GeoThermal Heat Systems through December 31, 2010, which will save you money for years to come.
