Long Table Farm received an award to support “Phase 1” of the establishment of a Solar Community Compost Center, specifically by funding a Ford Lightening Electric Truck, Sittler stationary trommel screen with electric motor, stone for composting pad, and vibratory plate compactor tool rental. This project created a stone pad for storing manure, making compost and potting soil, as well as utilizes solar-powered equipment for manufacturing and delivering compost through the state for the purpose of supporting farm productivity, sequestering carbon, and diverting food waste from landfills (thus reducing CO2 emissions.)
