growing a greener world -
Greening Up The Places We Call Home

Growing a greener world isn't something that happens in the garden alone. Living more in concert with our environment has to extend to the places we call home, too. We'll go off the grid to take a tour inside one next-gen home that was constructed almost entirely out of repurposed materials, and then visit a unique suburban subdivision that puts nature first.

Episode Duration: 26 minutes and 46 seconds

Episode Number: 1212
