HIGHGATE, VT
Choiniere Family Farm
With 80 cows, the Choiniere Family Farm is a certified Organic, all-grass-based dairy farm that’s been in the family for 4 generations. In 2021, they took advantage of Organic Valley’s program to help its co-op member farmers save money by going solar with zero upfront costs. SunCommon put solar panels on two existing buildings on their 500-acre property in Highgate, VT, which should save them more than $20,000 annually. Learn more about the Choiniere Family Farm here.
“Having those solar panels on the roof is exciting for us because it increases the productivity of that particular building that was losing value because it was built so long ago, and we now have 100-and-some-odd solar panels. That brings the value of that building up considerably.”

“All our crops are fed by the sun. All our animals eat grains and grass that are fed by the sun. Getting solar was a no-brainer.”

Footprint Farm
Jake and Taylor started Footprint Farm in 2013 to bring organic produce to their communities while reducing their carbon footprint. SunCommon installed 52 solar panels on their newly built home to cover the electricity usage for themselves AND their entire CSA farming operation. Learn more about Footprint Farm here.
“Economically, Suncommon was able to make it work for us. Repayment of our loan is going to be cheaper per month than our electricity use is right now.”
