			Marcin, I noticed your hanging plant tubes in your greenhouse appear to be uncoated PVC. Not sure if you are aware of or have looked into any leaching problems with PVC. If not, I'd encourage you guys to do some research. There's also potential problem with PEX as well.
			Just something to be aware of, especially around direct sunlight. You definitely don't want to use "uncoated" PVC outdoors.

			I'm actually looking into HDPE as an alternative right now:

			Places I could see this and also be excited - Medium, Pinterest, Improvised Life. Tags in addition to those listed above - tiny homes, small spaces, diy. Podcasts - Stuff You Should Know; create a Ted Talk? Other podcasts I haven't listened to yet but might work for you - Young House Love, NPR's How To Do Everything, House Planning Help, The Housing Hour, Killer Innovations

- Engadget and Gizmodo might be good to talk to as well, both from a sustainability standpoint and the open source aspect of the project. Startup is a pretty popular podcast that has been featuring different businesses, but I don't think that would move fast enough to help make sure the project gets funded.

	Jeremy Irwin - I found out about your project because Kickstarter featured it on their front page. I was drawn to it as I had just attended a Permaculture training in Koshkonong, MO at Jordan Rubin's farm. Bill Wilson from Midwest Permaculture taught the course. One of the many things that he covered was different types of housing. Also, he had briefly gone over your open source initiative for equipment. I'm very pleased to see the progress that has been made.		Jeremy Irwin - I found out about your project because Kickstarter featured it on their front page.
