Happy Holidays!

As 2016 comes to a close, we hope you and your families have had wonder-filled holidays together and are looking forward to a shiny, new 2017 as are we. We've had a great year connecting with Greenroofs.com readers, contributors, and advertisers online as well as traveling to conferences in Toronto, Portland, Bogota, and Washington, D.C. to help spread examples of awesome living architecture from around the Earth.

Speaking of fabulous projects, check out our 2016 Top 10 List of Hot Trends in Greenroof & Greenwall Design.

We fondly remember those who have passed, especially Diana Balmori and Caroline Menetre Totten ~ read my just published In Memoriam to Caroline. We'd also like to give props and thanks to all of you professionals and organizations out there who continue to support our community by greening our roofs and walls across the globe!

Look for our fun "2016 Projects of the Week in Review" video coming this week, our fourth Greenroofs & Walls of the World™ Virtual Summit in April, and the launch of our fantastic new website coming in the second quarter of 2017.

Season's Greetings & Best Wishes for a Prosperous, Healthy & Green 2017!
