Randi and LindseyLindsey White and Randi Grout work for Meadville Land Service, Inc., which is a "cousin" company of the Ernst Seed Company out of Cochranton, PA.  MLS specializes in planning, planting and maintaining large scale (multiple acre) pollinator 'gardens'... OK, fields; think corporate grounds and tracts of otherwise unproductive acres. The acreage in and around solar arrays are great opportunities to plant native plants to benefit pollinators in a large scale. Not only that, it cuts down the amount of maintenance required to keep the solar arrays productive and visually attractive, reduces water runoff and helps to build a healthy topsoil for future use, among other benefits.
