“Solar Day at the Almond Orchard” is first of
its kind, co-hosted with family-owned almond grower to focus on
mentoring and cultivating future industry leaders
Sunworks, Inc. (NASDAQ:SUNW), a leading provider of solar power
solutions for agriculture, commercial, industrial (ACI), and
residential markets, co-hosted the first “Solar Day at the Almond
Orchard” event, a highly immersive experience in sustainable almond
farming for enthusiastic, next generation leaders in the industry.
The event, held at Chamisal Creek Ranch, was a first of its kind
for the Almond Board of California Leadership Program.
“Solar Day at the Almond Orchard” was part of a year-long
mentoring and immersion program for individuals involved in the
California almond industry. The program includes over 100 hours of
seminars and cooperative events on leadership training,
communication strategies, networking, and educational assignments.
Veteran almond industry volunteers teach and interact with the
participants, instilling a set of responsibilities that are
critical to the future of almond growing.
The program cultivates young agricultural leaders who are
considered the industry’s best and brightest. They represent nearly
every aspect of almond farming, from growers to retailers.
Participants receive hands-on training in food safety, biomass
utilization, honey extraction, and nutrition research. In recent
years, these projects have led to important breakthroughs for
almond growing, resulting in the development of revolutionary,
sustainable methods that have made a direct impact on today’s
almond farmers.
Chamisal Creek Ranch, a Blue Diamond Grower and current Sunworks
customer, has a legacy built on environmental stewardship, proper
plant health, and sustainable business operations across its
700-acre operation. Sunworks and Chamisal Creek Ranch seek to
encourage sustainable almond growing practices and mentor the
industry’s next generation of leaders. Sunworks has years of
experience in agriculture-optimized solar technology, working with
growers and processors across California to build sustainable
energy initiatives that help them achieve low-cost electrical
usage.
Mike Doherty, owner of Chamisal Creek, said, “Sustainability is
a core commitment and key philosophy that inspires our
family-owned, 40 year ranch to strive for environmental excellence.
Sustainability is about ensuring that people, profit, and the
environment are all considered while conducting daily
business.”
Rita Edwards, Director of Marketing for Sunworks and a member of
the Almond Growers Leadership Board, said, “We are extremely
pleased to have co-hosted the Almond Board Leadership Program with
Chamisal Creek Ranch. We are committed to establishing long term
relationships with almond growers and to integrating solar power to
enhance the efficiency of almond farming methods.”
