An almost prehistoric depiction. Ha! Wind was around before those big guys and will be here long after we have exited this precious planet. Let's try and leave it a little better for the next generation!

Using Our Resources


Using our resources

After many years of living "the country life", we learned first-hand the importance of regaining some sort of "stewardship" of the land around us. As farming techniques begin to evolve and chemical enhancements to the soils become more and more prevalent so does the urgency for maintaining the fine balancing act between man and earth. One aspect of our immediate concern was a need to reduce our impact on the enviroment by reducing our carbon footprint. Our idea was an obvious one. Our area, The Sandusky Plains, has always been a fantastic source of a free and renewable resource; wind! Our solution was something that we took some time and effort in discovering. After our extensive research, we came upon a product that not only addressed our enviromental concerns but had immediate ROI in the form of a reduction in our electric bills. What a win-win situation!
