10) Each Bonsai community and individual home is built upon stringent health, sustainability, efficiency and quality standards to be as environmentally friendly as possible. Our communities feature significant open space, recreational trails, recycling and are powered by their own large scale renewable energy systems (solar, wind, hydro). We build living environments that are both physically and mentally healthy, and envision a world full of responsible communities.
