Eco-Friendly Real Estate Professionals: IMPACT & Trends- Part II :: PURPOSE
Real estate professionals know that every life has at its core a dream that quietly and unobtrusively asks to be fulfilled. Each of us dreams such a dream. It is an important part of the amazing blessing of just being in this world.
Purpose is another word for this dream. If you wish to realize your purpose in life you can start by exercising your talents within your chosen field or profession- get what you want, and not give it away, but share it wisely.
The eco-friendly real estate professionals at the Eco-All-Star (1,000+ member) Group at Active Rain are doing just that. So, this JULY, in this, and the series of posts that follow, we invite you to join us by reading the amazing contributions of our own Eco-All-Stars!
Today we celebrate: MICHELLE VIGGIANO 
Eco-All-Star Michelle is an interior designer with a faux finishing studio.
PURPOSE: Ensure an inviting environment that would educate, inspire and delight any visitor regardless of individual background, age or belief system.
Michelle conceptualized an educational garden with various smaller conceptual gardens to create a whole story. Sections such as plants used for ~ "economic growth and survival" ~ "medicinal plants" ~ "culinary plants and herbs" to name a few, as well as a "faith based garden section". ... conducted research ... locating rare and forgotten plants and seeds, making arrangements to grow them hydroponically, designing the layout of the garden, creating meaningful signage,
all with a view to ensure an inviting environment that would educate, inspire and delight any visitor regardless of individual background, age or belief system.
Michelle specializes in work that is non-slaked plaster colored with earth pigments. "I also have an eco-responsible, plant based, carpet and air duct cleaning business, " Michelle told me.
YOU will be delighted when you read THIS POST that underscores the notion of PURPOSE.
Thank you for this amazing contribution, Michelle .
