Forest Lodge Orchard is a high-density cherry orchard in Central Otago, New Zealand that operates without burning fossil fuels. They believe they are the first commercial food grower in New Zealand (if not the world) to achieve this goal.
The climate is a key focus in what they do, and Forest Lodge Orchard believes New Zealand's future as a food-producing nation will excel with the ability to grow and produce food in a highly sustainable and climate-friendly way.
Forest Lodge Orchard has electrified everything, from irrigation and frost-fighting fans to vehicles, tools, and even a future electric tractor and truck! A 45kWh solar production and a substantial, extendable battery array support all this equipment.
This week, Forest Lodge Orchard is giving you the opportunity to win a whole tree's harvest of electric cherries. Enter to win and head to https://www.forestlodge.nz/ to learn more about their mission.
