Excellent 6 minute video about 21 Acres!

Building Beyond Green – 21 Acres Center for Local Food and Sustainable Living. Unprecedented Facility Breaks Ground Featuring Largest Solar Array in Washington State. Demonstrates Technologies for Long Term Energy Efficiency.

We invite you to join the celebration as we break ground Saturday, June 6, for an unprecedented, cutting-edge facility in western Washington, that will provide vital infrastructure and education to support small farms.
Demonstrating new technologies for energy and water conservation in commercial and residential buildings, the 21 Acres Center for Local Food and Sustainable Living will feature a year-round farmers market, community kitchen, publicly available classroom space and a 50 kW PV solar panel array. Phase 1 of the project- the 8,500 square foot East Wing of the Center- will be located in otherwise urban western King County and will be a community venue for education on farming, sustainable living, and energy and water saving systems.
