Knowlesville Art and Nature Centre Solar Project

Solar | Community project we're supporting

Partner: Knowlesville Art and Nature Centre

A hundred kilometres northwest of Fredericton, New Brunswick, a former one-room church was transformed into the Knowlesville Art and Nature Centre, a community meeting space that now generates clean energy from its solar roof. At the Centre, Canadians can learn about and explore creative projects that enrich the social fabric and environmental stewardship of rural New Brunswick. With support from the Bullfrog community, the Centre will generate more green electricity for the community.

“What we’re trying to create is a neighbourhood where people feel welcome,” says Knowlesville Art and Nature Centre co-founder Tegan Wong-Daugherty.

About our community projects

Activists and organizers across the country are working to transition their communities away from fossil fuels. We created our community-based green energy projects grant to provide critical funding for these local efforts.

All bullfrogpowered customers help fund these small-scale, community-led projects, including solar panels on schools and in Indigenous communities, education and training programs, and a cleantech accelerator.
