Recently, I had the opportunity to participate in a tour of the original Eco-Home in Los Angeles, California. The home is a wonderful example of a living Eco Home. The owner of this adorable home is Julia Russell. Julia conducts tours throughout the year of her home, taking people through some of the decisions she has made to make her home more eco-friendly.

Great on-line sources for finding local healthy food.
