Description
- Grow Community was established in 2012 with the goal of creating a sustainable, intergenerational community intended to support the health and longevity of its residents.
- It is designed to be a Net Zero neighborhood with the ability to use solar panels to provide 100% of the energy needed to power each home.
- The Grow Community is the first One Planet neighborhood in the United States.
- The One Planet framework guides the design of Net Zero Energy neighborhoods as places where people can reduce their overall carbon footprint while living healthier and reducing costs.
- Accessible floor plans promote Grow Community’s goal of intergenerational living.
- Sixty percent of the new neighborhoods will be dedicated to green space and community gardens, and most parking will be underground. -There are solar-powered homes, shared community gardens and clean transportation options.
- The project uses locally sourced/renewable materials, low VOC materials, energy-efficient building envelopes, energy-efficient appliances and low-flow fixtures.
