Leading edge Renewables: A Farm-Pushed Round Resolution

Vanguard Renewables partners with leading food and beverage companies to recycle food and beverage waste on multi-generational dairy farms across the country to make renewable energy via anaerobic digestion. Vanguard has a long-standing partnership with Barstow’s Longview Farm, a seventh-generation family farm and member-owner of the Cabot Creamery Cooperative, to host one of Vanguard’s Farm Powered® anaerobic digesters.

Barstow’s Longview Farm sends their milk to Cabot Creamery Cooperative to be turned into delicious Cabot butter, and the inedible waste produced as a byproduct of that butter manufacturing is sent back to the anaerobic digester on the farm to become renewable energy and low-carbon farm fertilizer. The Cabot Creamery Cooperative closes this circular loop by purchasing the renewable energy that their waste creates to power the butter plant and help decarbonize their operations. This project churns up a host of benefits for the farm, the community, the cooperative, and the planet.
