Gayle and her husband Tom own a 520ha farm property at Glenrowan West.  Part of the property has been leased for a 212ha solar farm.  The solar farm has been operational since 2021.  Gayle & Tom leased out the farm in 1998 to concentrate on an agricultural contracting business.   The current leasee continues to run sheep on the whole 520ha.  Gayle and Tom are actively involved in ensuring the interaction between the leasee and the solar farm Operation & Maintenance Team is positive and aims to meet the objectives of both parties.
