At Turkey Creek Solar Ranch in Garrard County, Kentucky, a Silicon Ranch clean energy plus agriculture project, the solar farmland is in regenerative agricultural production, restoring soil health, creating happier sheep, and providing neighbor and local sheep farmer Daniel Bell with a new revenue stream and a transformational opportunity to grow his small farm to a fulltime, multi-generation operation.

Bell, the owner of Hazelbrook Farm, employs his flock of sheep to restore soil health and biodiversity as they graze the vegetation under and around the solar panels. The panels in return provide the sheep, which are raised on an all-grass diet, with healthier forage as well as shade and protection from the elements – rain, hail, ice, and more.
