Vermont couple grows solar-grazing flock from 30 sheep to 500
Original: In 2018, a Vermont couple started with 30 sheep; seven years later, their solar-grazing business had 500
A Vermont couple launched a solar-grazing business in 2018 with 30 sheep, and seven years later the flock has grown to 500. The sheep graze beneath solar panels, keeping vegetation down naturally while the land generates power. The story is drawing attention as an example of how agriculture and renewable energy can share the same ground.
Why now: Interest in agrivoltaics and practical examples of pairing farming with solar energy is growing.
