Garden District Tour of Sustainable Homes

The Garden District Civic Association continues its home tour tradition by hosting the Tour of Sustainable Homes and Gardens on Saturday April 20, 2013 from 2 to 5pm. The tour will feature 6 Garden District homes whose residents live in ways that save money and minimize their environmental impacts by conserving energy, growing their own food, and reducing waste. Tour participants will be inspired, motivated, or at least, entertained and educated by visiting with these homeowners and viewing their efforts and home features.
