Charles Gardner used to grow sod on a 440-acre farm in Cumberland and Bladen counties. Today, the site is covered with 271,500 solar modules capable of generating power for about 12,000 homes a year. Gardner couldn’t be more pleased.
“It’s good for everything,” Gardner said Monday. “It’s good for me, it’s good for the environment, it’s good for the community.”
