You don't need to go into the red to "green" your home. New materials and techniques allow you to build, remodel, redecorate or landscape without paying a premium. Keep the green in your wallet while living in beautiful, environmentally-friendly surroundings.

Expertise saves you time, money and frustration. Come meet the Green Dream Team, experts with tips on how to go green without blowing your budget at this free event. Learn how the typical home owner can get the most for their money:

- What changes most improve the energy efficiency of your home?
- What makes sense to do now, and what can wait for later?
- What single thing can you do that will pay you back in just one year and only costs about $100?
- What common problem is probably creating a health hazard in your home right now--and can be fixed without breaking the bank?
- What common pitfalls happen when people "save money" on their green remodels?

Team members include:

- Susan Davis of Spectrum Fine Homes and GreenPoint Coach
- Lorna Fear of Visual Cue Thermal Imaging
- Suzanne Emerson of Emerson Environmental
- Ted Reiff of The Reuse People
- Davide Giannella of Acadia-Architecture
- Julie Orr of Julie Orr Designs
- Bryant & Deb Busalacchi of Signature Floors Hardwood Flooring
- Shone Freeman of S.R. Freeman
- Evan Ellithorpe of Young Professionals
- Bobbie & Dennis Everett of The Wood Connection
- Matt Celia/Chris Allen of SDI Insulation

Green homes are ideal because they:

- Sell faster and command higher prices than traditional homes.
- Place less stress on the environment.
- Are healthier and more comfortable for the people that live in them.
- Cost less to operate.
- Are more inviting spaces to entertain in.
