Since 2022 Living Energy Farms has been hosting Solar Immersion/Training at their farm in Louisa VA. In the past it has been open to their partners from Puerto Rico. This year they are opening it to anyone who applies! This will be a great opportunity to live with and build daylight-drive solar systems.

The LEF program will take place on July 26 - 29, 2024. The first two days of the program will be dedicated to lecture and workshops, and will happen at Living Energy Farm. The second two days will be on- site training at a DC Microgrid installation site, Little Flower Catholic Worker house, which is 8 miles from LEF. The program is free and includes meals and accommodations (might be camping). In exchange for the training, we are asking that participants volunteer for 30 hours on a future installation on a project that has some social value to the public or a population in need. (It could be a project you find or choose.) Spaces are limited, and priority will be given to applicants who have an active project that will be applying DC Microgrid technology.

Unfortunately I can't make it, but it would be cool to go. I believe it is free.
 
They gave me pumpkin ice cream. It was not pumpkin pie ice cream. Wiping my tongue on this tiny ad:
