"Bamboo flooring harvested from responsibly managed forests, energy-conscious fluorescent lighting, cement-fiber siding to maximize insulation, carpet manufactured from recycled materials."

She bought a lot of her building supplies from Nature Neutral on Greenbrier Drive in Albemarle County. Nature Nurture offers “environmentally preferable” pressure treated lumber, sustainably harvested wood for flooring and trim, paints, insulation, piping products and more.
What do you think? Is this the future of home building?
