The American Solar Grazing Association Presents:
Bringing It All Back Home
What happens when you bring a farming culture to a solar energy site?
Sheep farmers Jess and Marcus Gray are helping to build up the local agricultural economy as they raise their lamb crop on solar sites in Virginia. Their sheep graze under panels and help support local hay producers, butchers, and other local agriculture businesses. Beekeeper Allison Wickham of Siller Pollinator Company pairs her bees with the Grays' sheep to produce local honey products from the same solar site. With their sheep and bees, these farmers are helping to make solar sites integral parts of the local farming economy. Bringing It All Back Home tells their story.
