Join Us! Sustainable Bremerton
is diverse group of individuals organized to promote sustainable living practices and
policies among people, businesses, and public agencies.
For most products we buy, and many decisions we make, there are sustainable alternatives
to business as usual: greener buildings, buying local, better reuse & recycling,
natural lawn care, using low-voc paint, pervious pavements, supporting local agriculture,
clean energy ...the list goes on and on. Making sustainable decisions means a better
quality of life for people and the planet.
If you are interested in Clean Energy, Green Building, Local Agriculture, or any other
sustainability issue, we invite you to join us as we work to find ways to engage the entire
community in a more sustainable lifestyle.
Watch this space for the next meeting notice.
For more info, or to get on the email list to be notified of
meeting times, contact us at sustainablebremerton@gmail.com.

A Food Co-op in Kitsap?
It could be a reality. A lot of us have been waiting a long time for this. Now is the
time to get involved.
Monica’s Waterfront Bakery & Cafe in Old Town Silverdale is a great place for lunch and
Friday, March 13th would be a great day to go there. That's because on March 13th, a
percentage of the day’s sales will go directly to the co-op!
Learn more on the
Kitsap Food Co-op Website.

Bremerton's Sustainability District
In December 2007, the Bremerton City Council approved the Downtown Sub Area Plan which
provides long-term direction for the continued revitalization of the downtown core. The
Plan encourages the incorporation of sustainable design and specifies a "Sustainability
District"; a multifamily neighborhood where sustainable building practices are encouraged.
The district is located between Warren and Park Avenues and between 6th and 11th Streets.
The new Kitsap Community Resources Building, Bremerton's first LEED Certified building, is
in this district. You can view the Downtown Sub Area Plan at:
