Set up a grazing paddock with a named shepherd.

Sheep already keep ground cover down under tens of thousands of acres of American solar, and they do it without a mower, a sprayer or a fuel bill. Set up one paddock at OUC community solar at the Stanton Energy Center: a named local shepherd, a written agreement covering flock size, dates, stocking rate and daily responsibility, and a boundary walked with Orlando Utilities Commission so that every inverter pad, transformer, combiner, cable run and conduit riser sits OUTSIDE the grazed area. flatwoods sand and mowed grass between the rows, with afternoon storm runoff crossing it. Fencing is the shepherd's own, set by hand, touching no part of the array.

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

named shepherd + written grazing agreement + boundary map with every electrical zone outside it + water, shade and escape provisions + start-of-season cover

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Bring

• the shepherd's own temporary fencing, posts and energizer, supplied and owned by the shepherd
• measuring tape, flags and a GPS phone
• water trough and a filled water source
• camera
• the written grazing agreement and the site owner's permission letter
• hi-vis vest

Steps

1. 1. Name the shepherd and record the written grazing agreement: flock size, breed, dates, stocking rate, and who is responsible for the animals every day of the graze.
2. 2. Walk the paddock boundary with the site owner's representative and mark it so that every inverter pad, transformer, combiner, cable run, conduit riser and enclosure sits OUTSIDE the grazed area.
3. 3. Set the temporary fencing on the marked boundary using the shepherd's own equipment and hand tools, touching no part of the array and no electrical equipment.
4. 4. Place and fill the water source, and record the shade, water and escape provisions the flock will have.
5. 5. Photograph the finished paddock from fixed points with GPS, and record the ground cover height and dominant species at the start of the pass.
6. 6. Publish the agreement's terms, the boundary map showing the electrical zones outside it, the photographs, and the date the flock arrives.

What counts as done

• The shepherd named, with the written grazing agreement's terms: flock size, breed, dates, stocking rate and who is responsible daily
• The paddock boundary walked with the site owner's representative, mapped and photographed, with every piece of electrical equipment shown outside it
• Water source placed and filled, and the shade and escape provisions recorded
• Start-of-season ground cover height and dominant species, with GPS and photos from fixed points

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
