On April 27 iFarm will be hosting a workshop for homeowners to learn about energy-saving renovations (that’s this Saturday, folks!) A working farm with lovingly restored buildings, iFarm combines 19th-century knowledge with 21st-century innovation to create a model for sustainability in agriculture. With the effects of manmade climate change now apparent, it is more important than ever to change to the wasteful way we build. We try to save more old, and are conscientious about what we replace, avoiding carbon-intensive manufactured materials. This workshop is geared towards saving money, but the practices Carl Solander teaches can also help homeowners reduce their carbon footprint.

The workshop will cover both passive renovations and alternative energy sources, it concludes with a tour of the farm buildings and should be wicked awesome. Sign up, here.
