GRANITE GOODNESS PARTNERS
Community Partners
Resilient Buildings Group’s (RBG) mission is simple: scale the number and quality of high performance, low energy, resilient buildings across New England.
They work directly with building owners, developers, and organizations to reduce energy costs, improve comfort and durability, and cut greenhouse gas emissions through customized, practical consulting.
I personally know many of the people behind RBG, and their ethos and approach align deeply with what we’re building at Granite Goodness.
Energy efficiency does not always get the spotlight. But it is often the most effective and highest ROI way to lower costs and reduce emissions. While massive solar projects and large infrastructure grab headlines, the quiet work of tightening building envelopes, reducing heat loss, and improving performance delivers real and lasting impact today.
At Granite Goodness, we identify and uplift the people making exactly this sort of meaningful progress across New England. RBG embodies that spirit perfectly.
Treeline Outfitters is an outdoor retailer and taproom that brings the spirit of adventure to the heart of the Seacoast. Focused on authenticity, community, and the environment, they don’t just sell gear—they help people get outside and connect.
From day one of Granite Goodness, my friends Cody and Emily Whelan at Treeline have been unbelievably generous, letting me record countless episodes in their space. They’re some of the kindest, most interesting people I know. I can’t recommend checking out Treeline enough.
If you’re Seacoast-based or just passing through, don’t miss a visit to Treeline! You’ll find community, authenticity, great gear, great beer, great people—and probably your next adventure too. Learn more about Treeline on Cody’s Granite Goodness episode:
