Here in the welcoming Asheville area mountainsit is time again for the annual one-day Mountain Green Sustainability Conference held on the campus of Warren Wilson College. It may be for only one day, but it is packed with green possibilities. The program itself is on-going and lasts throughout the year. (see the FREE L:lunch and Learn Series below.)
Some of our favorite local experts (see photo)are on the conference steering committee including Equinox Environmental, Warren Wilson College where the conference will be held (we love their GREEN Dorm) the WNC Green Building Council, and our own Asheville Board of REALTORS®.
FREE LUNCH & LEARN SERIES: All are invited to enjoy free, monthly Mountain Green "lunch and learn" presentations on sustainable community issues. And conference attendees are in for an educational adventure when they choose from a huge number of learning opportunities.
Interested? Here is the Schedule:
Says Phil Gibson of the Environmental Leadership Center at the college (far right in photo above), "Mountain Green is a program that embodies both informational luncheons and an annual conference. The Green Walkabout© is an informative and inspiring walking tour of Warren Wilson College's sustainability initiatives that have earned the College recognition as a national sustainability leader. Participants of both will experience principles and best practices of green building, energy use, waste management, native landscaping, sustainable agriculture and forestry, and more."
