Many thanks to everyone for Saturday’s successful event,
LiveGreenTogether: a book discussion and signing with EcoVillage co-
founder and award-winning author, Liz Walker. After a short
presentation about cohousing basics given by Good Tree Village, Walker
gave an inspiring and informative address to an intimate but
captivated audience on EcoVillage at Ithaca, its development,
accomplishments, challenges and future goals.

Afterward Walker entertained plenty of thoughtful and discerning
questions with additional well-informed input from Ann Zabaldo of
Cohousing Collaborative and Mid-Atlantic Cohousing. Next, Good Tree
Village presented Walker with a thank you gift of a bonsai tree.
Finally a lucky guest won an autographed copy of Choosing a
Sustainable Future. Guests also made their selections from VA Green
Baggers’ free colorful hand-made shopping bags.

That same evening a Good Tree Village family took Walker and a few
friends to dinner at Busboys and Poets in Shirlington, VA. After a
casual, though lengthy, conversation with the manager of the fair
trade craft and book store as they waited for a table, it seems there
may be a deal struck soon that will possibly result in Busboys and
Poets carrying Walker’s book at their locations!

We wish Liz continued success as she continues her book tour. If you
missed her last weekend, you can catch her again as the opening
speaker at the 2011 National Cohousing Conference coming to the DC
Metro area this June.
