Community Owned Energy
We support local clean energy projects that benefit the whole community. We've successfully deployed a 50 kW solar system at the Senior Center, a 11 kW system on our Library, and have more systems in the works. Our 2020 focus will be an array for the Head Start/HDRC building. These projects fit our criteria for community buildings where energy savings return a benefit to the entire community and educate our friends and neighbors about the benefits of solar. This year we are registered with the Give a Hoot community involvement campaign in hopes of receiving matching funds. Donations will be accepted starting July 6th.

An Ebike makes it easy for people of many abilities to get around town for fun or for their day to day errands. #GoByBike keeps us in touch with our human senses instead of being isolated in a car, detached from the world. We definitely don't need more loneliness and isolation in these times.
We'd love to see pictures of you and your family out biking! Use the hashtag #GoByBike and tag @TimberTrails and @BikeClubMT as well, happy biking!
We have also worked in conjunction with the city and county to bring Energy Corps service members to help advance sustainability within our local government operations. In the first year of his service, the Energy Corps intern has identified and secured over $70,000 worth of savings for our government through energy efficiency, rebates, and renewable energy projects. We believe that energy saved and produced at a local government advances the energy democratization at home and can have a real impact for our cash strapped public services.
Our new intern, Lexie Folkerts, is hard at work. Lexie is playing a big role in our 2020 Solarize campaign. She’s also investigating ways we might boost local recycling, as well as energy upgrades and efficiency at the fairgrounds. We’re lucky to have her energy and enthusiasm!
