If you’re one of the fortunate residents of “The Land of Enchantment” who’s living in a sustainably-built home, the 9th annual Green Built Tour New Mexico wants you to open your doors to the public this spring.

Here’s your opportunity to show off your energy-efficient home that:

“follows sustainable design and construction principles,”
“illustrates passive and/or active solar design and technology,”
“represents new and different alternative building envelopes or appropriate use of traditional building methods.”

As part of “Sustainability Week” beginning May 10, workshops, lectures, and tours of commercial green buildings will be featured in Albuquerque as well.

If you have the time along the way, I highly recommend checking out some of the many scenic byways New Mexico has to offer.
