The people of Greensburg come together for the groundbreaking of a sustainable school while the building of the business incubator moves ahead. City Administrator, Steve Hewitt has high hopes that the opening of the incubator will help bring local business owners back to the town.

The First Methodist Church opens and the residents of Greensburg attend service together for the first time in sixteen months. In the meantime, the rebuilding of the LEED certified John Deere dealership reaches completion. High school students Levi Smith and Taylor Schmidt decide to dress up for Halloween as the previous mayor, John Janssen and Steve Hewitt.

Steve Hewitt travels to Washington D.C. to meet with the congressional committee to testify for the funding of green rebuilding. The Chevrolet Dealership has its grand opening and the Chevrolet Volt is introduced for the very first time. And with very few homes, the residents gather to celebrate Halloween on Main Street, truck or treat style.

Read the 'sneak peek' of The Future is Now episode.
