Cool Home Tips From GRID Philly’s May Issue
We're pouring through the latest issue of GRID, Philly's sustainability-savvy mag (you can read issues online or find it at numerous local businesses) and as always, we learned a thing or two.
- Urban and rooftop gardening (page 10)
- Upgrading your hot water heater (solar water heaters can lower your bill by 50-80%) (page 12)
- Find out where to drop off your household hazardous waste (page 13!)
- Read about eco-friendly architecture (page 16)
- Make the most of local asparagus season with these spring recipes. Yum. (page 30)
If you like what you read, go celebrate GRID's First Anniversary on Saturday, April 10 at the Yards Tasting Room (901 N. Delaware Ave.), from 5-8 pm. And don't forget about Saturday's Philly Spring Cleanup!
