Brett & Tawnee Dufur are proud to
announce that the Katy Trail B&B is featured in the new book:
ECOpreneuring: Putting Purpose & the Planet
before Profits |
|
By Lisa Kivirist &
John Ivanko
From the introduction:
From "mom-preneurs" to Boomers launching the dream business they always
wanted, there are more people today yearning for a soul-nourishing business
that celebrates our human spirit and potential than there are interviewing
for a job. Small, sustainable and place-based businesses and the ecopreneurs
who run them are becoming the very foundation of the emerging new green
economy of the 21st Century. Increasingly, launching either for-profit or
non-profit businesses are seen as the means to create a more sustainable and
socially just tomorrow.
Part small business manifesto, part personal finance
primer, ECOpreneuring is essential reading for small business
owners, prospective entrepreneurs, social entrepreneurs starting non-profit
organizations and anyone who dreams of a livelihood based on independence,
creativity, passion and a commitment to green practices and sustainability.Click
