The Institute For Solar Living
The Institute for Solar Living is dedicated to the belief that education will help bring about the changes in consciousness and behavior necessary to create an environmentally sustainable future.
The Institute for Solar Living is a 501(c)3 nonprofit educational organization. The Institute was originally born as a part of Real Goods Trading Corporation, offering educational workshops since 1992. Since its inception, Real Goods has always understood the importance of education in encouraging people to choose information and lifestyles that preserve the environment. Now as a completely separate nonprofit organization since 1998, the Institute for Solar Living is able to focus solely on education and to greatly expand upon many of the educational programs originally started by Real Goods Trading Corporation.

for the nonprofit Institute
for Solar Living. The

on Highway 101, approximately a two hour drive from the Bay Area.
