In the Amish tradition, when one family needs help building their barn, the community lends a hand.
Energy-efficiency barn-raisings are kicking off in Providence this Saturday, where 30+ volunteers will celebrate Halloween with insulation and CFLs. Through hands-on work, all participants will learn new skills to take back to their own homes in order to save energy and money.
Organizer Amelia Rose notes, “and then we’ll have a big party.”
You’re invited.
92 Holden St, Providence
9 am to 2 pm
