Alan and Nancy Benoit, of Sustainable Design in Vermont, joined me this episode to talk about the 1880s farmhouse that they are transforming into a net zero house for themselves. Their architecture firm works exclusively on affordable, sustainable architecture and their house is a demonstration of their techniques and values. Check out their website for examples of their work and for many beautiful articles about them and their amazing current house and garden.
