THIS IS A GREEN HOME! Apple Treehouse is in our Green Homes program. To be a Green Home, a property must utilize compact fluorescents for at least 75% of its lighting, supply recycled fiber paper products, use gentler cleaning products, and offer recycling bins for guest use. Apple Treehouse was designed and built by an environmentally aware team of architects and builders. It was built from SIPs (structural insulated panels) and takes great advantage of passive solar heat. The hot water heater and electricity is supplemented by a solar power system during the summer months.
