Eco-Urban 101

May 24th, 2008 · 6 Comments

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed.

I have been flooded with questions and responses from our offer to host Eco-Urban 101 Dinners so I thought it would be a good idea to put a post up here and explain what they are all about. The first one is already full and the second is already filling up fast so if you are interested be sure to email me and get your name on the list.

The dinners are a sort of education class on Eco-Urban development and sustainable living using the Good project as an example. The Dinners will be in our “Extra Small” home we recently finished. The food will be prepared while we watch by a local chef. (More on him later)

We only ask that you come with lots of questions and an open mind. You really don’t have to be involved in building urban houses to get something out of these dinners, they more about giving us all a chance to talk with like-minded people about the things that matter: community, sustainability, and how to change the world!

Email me at Levi(at)LJUrban(dot)com and let me know you want in and I will email you when the next slot opens up.  (and sorry, I have to write my email that way so I don’t get on a bunch of web crawlers spam lists.)

Thanks to everyone who came out yesterday to our sneak peak event. We really enjoyed showing off our shiny new house!  Its really fun finally getting a chance to  explain to people all that we have been working on for the last few years. I am sorry to those who we never got a chance to talk with, I know that I did not get to half of the people I wanted to talk to.

For those of you who were out of town and did not make it out, we will post some pictures soon of the inside of the house, also we will be sure to host more open house days soon so you all get a chance to see inside the home.

    Count me in! I am glad to see that you are going to spell out the journey so far. Walking around the project yesterday, I was totally blown away. There truly is no other project like it in Sacramento. Or anywhere that I have been for that matter. Great job guys! Way to stick to your guns and push through. I loved the article by the way.
