Dear Members and Friends,

For the last fifteen years, SEEDS (Sustainable Energy Education and Development Support), its board members, and its volunteers have been a mainstay in our community, impacting our corner of Pennsylvania as stalwart advocates for a cleaner energy future and sustainable living.

Since its founding in 2008, SEEDS has presented numerous free educational forums on: 

• energy efficiency
• renewable energy
• water conservation
• homesteading
• and so much more.

SEEDS is best known for our

• Do-It-Yourself hands-on workshops
• free home energy assessments
• the creation of The Clean Energy Co-Op
• working with elected officials to enable The Pennsylvania Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy Program, or C-PACE, financing options for Wayne County
• and the annual FREE Book Share – a bonanza of free book shopping, featuring donated books from anyone, with leftover books donated to global literacy programs and all others recycled so not one ends up in a landfill.

 
SEEDS volunteers have advocated effectively, respectfully, and passionately in our community for 15 years and we are at a pivotal point in our development…. And we need YOU!

You can make a difference!
