Steve Satow is one of three founders of ASRi, and joins Terry on this 30 minute episode to talk about this exciting initiative.

Great interview. A natural building group is forming here in Port Townsend and the trailblazing work for Eco-Sense and ASRi will be invaluable. Thanks.
Thanks Kris! Look for more interviews coming up with groups in Olympia and Portland doing this type of work as well.
