24% OffFounded by Elizabeth Bauman in 1895, Baumans Farm & & Garden in Gervais has a long history of providing trees, flowers, produce, pies and more to consumers throughout the Willamette Valley. “As a family service, were devoted not only to our clients but to being great stewards of the Earth and neighborhood,” stated Brian Bauman, co-owner and Elizabeths great, terrific grand son. That commitment to sustainability has actually prompted Baumans to gradually invest in energy effectiveness for more than a decade– cutting yearly gas usage by an approximated 55,000 therms and delivering annual energy expense savings of around $42,200.
Last year, when it was time to install a new greenhouse, Baumans connected 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 in the greenhouse stays rather consistent,” said Bauman. The greenhouses polycarbonate has a pigment that diffuses light, supplying exceptional light quality for plant development. Roof vents in each bay enable natural ventilation. The gable style has an internal truss that can accommodate a motorized nighttime thermal drape, which Baumans strategies to install in the future.
Since of twin-wall innovation, the greenhouse is expected to conserve an estimated $10,700 in annual gas expenses compared to single-wall building and construction. Baumans received an Energy Trust of Oregon cash reward of $2,400 to help balance out the included expense.
Baumans has received more than $80,000 in Energy Trust rewards. “We take benefit of Energy Trusts offerings every opportunity we get. Rest ensured, well be doing more tasks in the future,” stated Bauman.
