Our Green Initiatives
Solar Energy
We're proud of the fact that over 50% of our annual electricity is generated by solar panels. This saves over 36 barrels of oil every year! You you won't see any solar panels on our property because we purchase the electricity from the farm across the street which has an extensive solar array.
Recycling
We recycle glass, metal & cardboard and compost all our organic waste. This has enabled us to reduce our impact on local landfills by nearly 65%!
Energy Efficiency
To use less energy we've replaced our boiler with a high efficiency model and use programmable thermostats. Our air conditioners are ultra efficient and we utilize LED or fluorescent lights everywhere possible.
If you have questions or suggestions, please let us know. We're always looking for new ways to reduce our environmental footprint.
We make every effort possible to reduce our carbon footprint and our impact on the local environment.
Here's a brief list of our current efforts.
