Origins -
PrecisionCraft Log Homes created the GREEN LOG Awards in 2008 to help find green building solutions for clients and other home builders. Upon the realization that locating innovative and useful green building solutions could be difficult, they looked for a creative way to discover and present these products to the public. Thus the GREEN LOG Home Awards were born.
