Farmer recently put solar panels all ovr his roof, now collectng cheques instead of paying bills, thanks to solar

It's not easy tracking down a person of no fixed address and no phone, but I kept trying because I needed to tell him about how the community had rallied together to help him,” said Bérubé.
