Making Your Home Cozy & Efficient: A Green Living Workshop

Join us for an engaging workshop on how to make your home more energy-efficient and comfortable. We’ll explore why the “building envelope”—the walls, windows, roof, and insulation, plays such a big role in keeping heated or cooled air from escaping. Learn practical steps to reduce drafts, improve insulation and make your home more airtight, in order to help you save money on energy bills while staying cozy year-round.
You'll also learn why improving your home’s envelope should come before investing in bigger systems like heating, cooling, or solar panels, so you get the most value from those upgrades. Whether you’re thinking about renovations or just want simple fixes, this session will give you clear, useful ideas you can put into action.

Nick is a journeyman carpenter with over 16 years' experience in the housing construction industry with expertise in building envelope and Passive House trades.
