'Sustainable Living' at Attleboro Public Library

1. 'Sustainable Living, One Old House at a Time' at Attleboro Public Library

Wednesday at 7 p.m., An interactive presentation by a former Home Economics teacher and architect's wife on selecting and rehabbing an early 60's ranch house with an eye to environmental and economic sustainability and " ageing -in-place".  Come to hear about selecting a location and orientation for a new or existing house, and working to conserve energy as well as generating much of what is needed from the sun!  Some time will also be devoted to lifestyle changes to save resources and promote self-sufficiency.  Plenty of time will be allowed for questions. 

2. Check out the Attleboro Home of the Day:

Wednesday night at 7 p.m., Cindy Saksena, retired Home Economics teacher, will describe the steps she took to turn her house into a model of sustainable living for "aging in place" and reducing one's carbon footprint. Applicable to those looking to purchase a home, too.
