$31.99 (as of 20:12 GMT +00:00 - More info)Founded by Elizabeth Bauman in 1895, Baumans Farm & & Garden in Gervais has a long history of supplying trees, flowers, produce, pies and more to customers throughout the Willamette Valley. “As a family business, were dedicated not only to our clients however to being excellent stewards of the Earth and neighborhood,” said Brian Bauman, co-owner and Elizabeths excellent, terrific grand son. That dedication to sustainability has triggered Baumans to gradually purchase energy effectiveness for more than a decade– cutting annual gas use by an estimated 55,000 therms and delivering annual energy cost savings of approximately $42,200.
Last year, when it was time to install a brand-new greenhouse, Baumans reached out to greenhouse supplier 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 remains rather consistent,” said Bauman.
Because of twin-wall innovation, the greenhouse is expected to conserve an estimated $10,700 in annual natural gas costs compared to single-wall building. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon money incentive of $2,400 to help offset the included expense.
Baumans has actually received more than $80,000 in Energy Trust rewards. “We make the most of Energy Trusts offerings every opportunity we get. Rest assured, well be doing more projects in the future,” said Bauman.
