More Info
For this semester's Green Lunch Discussion Series, Dr. Susan Miller, a physician at MCV, will be our guest speaker. Dr. Miller and her husband, Dr. Kenneth Kendler, restored a 1910 house in the Fan into the first LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) Platinum Certified home in Richmond. Their house exemplifies sustainable living, with features including a green roof, solar tube, locally made concrete countertops with recycled glass, and an indoor living wall of plants. It is the winner of the Green Hammer Award from A.C.O.R.N. (Alliance to Conserve Old Richmond Neighborhoods). Join us for a discussion with Dr. Miller followed by a tour!
