Founded by Elizabeth Bauman in 1895, Baumans Farm & & Garden in Gervais has a long history of supplying trees, flowers, produce, pies and more to consumers throughout the Willamette Valley. “As a family organization, were devoted not just to our clients but to being excellent stewards of the Earth and community,” said Brian Bauman, co-owner and Elizabeths terrific, terrific grand son. That dedication to sustainability has triggered Baumans to progressively buy energy performance for more than a decade– cutting yearly gas use by an estimated 55,000 therms and providing annual energy expense savings of roughly $42,200.
Last year, when it was time to install a brand-new greenhouse, Baumans reached out to greenhouse vendor OBC Northwest, Inc. for an energy-efficient design made 100% of twin-wall polycarbonate. “Although its a large space with two bays and 14-foot sidewalls, the temperature level in the greenhouse stays quite continuous,” said Bauman. The greenhouses polycarbonate has a pigment that diffuses light, providing excellent light quality for plant growth. Roofing system vents in each bay enable for natural ventilation. The gable design has an internal truss that can accommodate a motorized nighttime thermal drape, which Baumans plans to set up in the future.
The greenhouse is anticipated to conserve an estimated $10,700 in annual natural gas expenses compared to single-wall construction due to the fact that of twin-wall technology. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon money incentive of $2,400 to help offset the added cost.
Baumans has actually received more than $80,000 in Energy Trust rewards. “We take advantage of Energy Trusts offerings every opportunity we get. Rest ensured, well be doing more tasks in the future,” stated Bauman.
