37% OffEstablished by Elizabeth Bauman in 1895, Baumans Farm & & Garden in Gervais has a long history of offering trees, flowers, produce, pies and more to clients throughout the Willamette Valley. “As a household organization, were devoted not just to our customers but to being good stewards of the Earth and community,” stated Brian Bauman, co-owner and Elizabeths terrific, terrific grandson. That dedication to sustainability has prompted Baumans to progressively invest in energy effectiveness for more than a decade– cutting yearly natural gas usage by an estimated 55,000 therms and delivering yearly energy cost savings of approximately $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 big area with two bays and 14-foot sidewalls, the temperature in the greenhouse stays rather constant,” stated Bauman.
Because of twin-wall innovation, the greenhouse is anticipated to conserve an approximated $10,700 in annual gas costs compared to single-wall construction. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon money reward of $2,400 to assist balance out the added cost.
Baumans has received more than $80,000 in Energy Trust rewards. “We benefit from Energy Trusts offerings every possibility we get. Feel confident, well be doing more projects in the future,” said Bauman.
