    Hello Martha,

    I enjoyed our tour of your fish-singer properties some ago. I didn’t agree with everything you did on those homes, none the less, exceptional homes! They were a wealth of information on the transforming of responsible building, and I’m glad to see your still with it with “City Cabins”.

    I’ve been working with NW Eco Build Guild, and the USGBC and other than a few contract jobs, there’s not much out there…I’m a recent grad in Sustainable Building Advising and IAQ for Healthy Homes, and looking forward to this weekends, Shoreline Solar Fair. I would love to stop by your booth, and am hoping you could do the same at NW Eco Build.

    PS- Wanted to find out where your procured your cisterns on your Fish-Senger properties? Thanks.
