-Shawn Le Mons
I joined was BGBG the same week that I founded Eco Handyman. Since then I have had the pleasure of meeting many great green builders, designers, realtors and other professionals at various BGBG events. Every week I refer clients to other members of BGBG, and I also get referrals back. Joining BGBG has introduced me to a network of friends who really care about high quality building and the environment. I have found that most people join BGBG to share their knowledge and learn from others at the educational events, and the fun networking socials.
- Nathaniel L. Burger, Founder, Eco Handyman, LLC.
BGBG membership keeps me in constant dialog with colleagues and competitors, and engaged in green building issues of all kinds. Running a business keeps me "in the trenches," and BGBG has become a way to regularly come up above ground and work with other green building professionals. Market transformation is made of individual decisions, by consumers and producers, and BGBG has supported me in pushing into new territory in building zero energy homes. Our high-performing homes business grew 40% per year for 12 years, and the with BGBG's help, we are in the process of doubling our volume in one year. That's partly due to being in the right place at the right time, and also to having a good professional association to help along the way by networking, educating, and collaborating.
- Eric L. Doub, President and Founder, Ecofutures Building, Inc.
Pioneering with the Boulder Green Builders Guild has given me the opportunity to closely connect with sustainable leaders and together we share our resources to support each other to change the world, one green community at a time.
