In the future, your events at the Door County Granary being restored may be solar-powered. The unexpected but welcomed energy source was brought up at Tuesday’s Sturgeon Bay Common Council meeting. During a granary project presentation, Sturgeon Bay Historical Society Executive Director Beth Renstrom said that an unnamed donor was very interested in getting solar power at the granary. Renstrom added that it does fit the plans for the project surrounding sustainability and that a solar evaluation for the building is being done next week.
Renstrom also said that a significant amount of donations the project has received comes from northern Door County.
