Johnny's back with another Walk n Talk, proving that a rainy day and a slice of pizza are sometimes all you need to put things into perspective.

From a distance, a field of flowers appears still. But get closer, or stay a while, and you’ll catch it: hundreds of small transactions, happening all the time.

Just one of the many observations from local farmer and friend, Dan, whose full story is dropping in a couple weeks.

What is Brownfield?

We all call somewhere home. And all around us, people are quietly devoted to something they love, noticing things in their everyday that the rest of us may never think about.

So we’re spending a little time with them: what they do, why they do it, and what we might learn by looking a little closer...

Dan is a flower and herb farmer. This month we’ll follow along to learn about his experience working with nature. Stay tuned for the full video.

We all have different ways of contributing to the energy future we want to see.

Community solar gives everyday people a way to participate, simply by choosing to take part in a local solar project.

Whatever your energy goals look like, there’s a place for you in the bigger picture.

Not every acre of farmland is actively being farmed. In some cases, underused land can take on a new purpose, like generating solar energy for the surrounding community.

It’s another way land can continue to provide, just a little differently.

Greenfields, brownfields… what’s the difference?

A greenfield generally refers to land that hasn’t previously been developed. A brownfield, on the other hand, is a property where previous development or use may have left behind environmental concerns that can make redevelopment more complicated.

Think former industrial properties, factories, landfills, and other sites that may no longer serve their original purpose.

Sometimes, certain brownfields can be redeveloped into solar projects, creating a productive use for land that has already been impacted while supporting more renewable energy on the grid.

Not every solar project looks the same, and where we choose to build them is an important aspect of the conversation.

Every Fall, the fields give back what a year of work put in. That's the whole rhythm of a farm. In the coming weeks we will be exploring the greater idea of working together with the land.

Take care of the land, and it has a way of taking care of us.
