GOING GREEN: Mountain homes and land legacies
I am excited about the trend toward eco-savvy communities in the Asheville NCarea. In a time when many communities may be drawing inward, the opposite seems true when I research eco-friendly communities for my clients. Here is an example - news from Hickory Nut Forest Eco-Community near Asheville.
Hickory Nut Forest Eco-community has created a non-profit called Mountain Roots whose Mission Statement reveals that the non-profit is dedicated to providing discovery and adventure learning experiences, while exposing participants to a working model of environmentally responsible and community-centered living.
The purpose of Mountain Roots is to:
1) Practice and teach a variety environmentally sustainable practices through organic farming, land conservation, and the use of renewable energy technologies;
2) Model a balanced and healthy life-style
3) Emphasize character, leadership, and community development;
4) Encourage healthy living by providing challenging opportunities through adventure experiences.
