In The Solar Sheep of Alberta, we head to Whispering Cedars Ranch in Strathmore, Alberta, where we delve into the fascinating and innovative world of solar grazing.
Farmers Janna and Ryan Greir’s journey began as hobby farmers, but with Alberta’s boom in solar energy, they identified a unique opportunity. They proposed that their sheep be used to maintain the land around the solar energy panels. Their idea gained momentum and their small farm soon expanded into a bustling ranch where they now house over 400 sheep.
In the film, Janna and Ryan describe their symbiotic relationship with the sheep explaining that they use their “sheep as a service”. The sheep maintain the vegetal growth around the solar panels and provide wool. Janna and Ryan also express their optimism about the future of the Canadian wool industry and their role in shaping it.
The Solar Sheep of Alberta is part of our film series, “The Fabric of Canada” which tells the unique stories of Canadian wool and the Canadians who transform it.
