Here in Tallahassee we are lucky to have one the most generous city rebate & incentive programs for building or remodeling green. e.g. if you are building an energy-efficient home and you are interested in getting it ENERGY STAR certified, the city of Tallahassee will pay you up to $1/square foot of conditioned space, up to $2,000 dollars!

This not only covers the cost of the certification, but will put money in your pocket!

For more information on these and other rebates & home-improvement grants in Tallahassee, go here, or check out the website for Tallahassee's "Go Green" Program. Included are links to green building information, green power options, and the available gas rebates that the city provides if you are going to switch to natural gas.

For many of us, rain gardens, green roofs, and rainwater collection systems are awfully fun to think about, stand out as being exceptionally green, and yet we've never really seen any of them in action..!?

As popular of an idea as rainwater collection is, very few people are actually installing or using these systems. Why not?

Who knows..!?

Maybe because we don't know enough about them... Maybe because we don't see a direct benefit in terms of dollar savings...

Most of us would probably put changing lightbulbs, changing out windows, adding insulation as priorities well above using a rainwater collection system... I wonder how that might change if we continue to experience water shortages, such as that in Atlanta, GA over this last year?

Here in Tallahassee, we are lucky to have North Florida's first commercial company that provides services in rainwater harvesting and landscaping: Sustainable Irrigation and Landscaping, is a family-owned and operated business with a lot of experience.

Get in on the cutting edge of green, impress your friends and neighbors, and give them a call!
