Learn more about this year’s winners and their accomplishments!
They are innovators, entrepreneurs, educators and designers – in government, commerce, construction and non-profits. They are advocates for high-performance buildings and schools. For communities focused on water and energy conservation. And for discovering that green is good for business while raising the bar for social equity in future developments. Sometimes their accomplishments are ‘quietly green’ and sometimes iconic – making the St. Louis skyline more sustainable, one building at a time. Yet all those nominated and honored for the Growing Green Awards share a passion for excellence and an enduring commitment to seeing our region as a model for the rest of the nation.
The St. Louis Regional Chapter is proud to celebrate and recognize the individuals, groups and organizations actively transforming the built environment while sharing their knowledge of green building and sustainable practices.

- Innovator: seeking innovative solutions to a green building problem, including existing, new or renovated buildings, systems or operations
- Home Builder: working to further sustainable residential building, single family or multi-family up to 30 units
