They're still in the early phase of it, so not much to see. Unfortunately they had to cut down all the trees they had in the parking lot at step 1. But they said the whole system should be done around spring time, and will provide 80% of the electricity the zoo uses.

Thanks for the info, I appreciate it. I've lived in this area my entire life and I remember when the Stone Zoo had Elephants, Giraffes and Polar Bears etc. My grandchildren have season passes now but it's so much less than it used to be. Glad to see it still open and updating its carbon footprint.
