Summertime ! Time to think about energy use
on your horse farm.
Are you running fans when you could use
natural ventilation and shade? Is your
arena or barn roof a good candidate for solar panels? Could that wind that blows be harnessed to
provide you with electricity? Are there
easy ways for you to cut down on the electricity you now use through LED bulbs
and smart monitors? Do you want to
reduce the “carbon footprint” of your farm?
Energy is the focus of the Summer Maryland
Horse Council Farm Stewardship meeting which will be graciously hosted by the
Chesapeake Bay Foundation at their headquarters in Annapolis
Please join us on
Thursday, August 14 from noon – 3:00 pm.
