Solar Savings Funds Future Program Needs
At Safe Haven Farms, our solar installation is having a positive effect on our farm’s operating plan. With estimated annual energy savings of over 30%, we can now allocate these savings to farm programs or new projects. This year’s savings will support growth in our day services and therapeutic equestrian programs plus assist us in providing new community outreach activities. Thank you, All Points North Foundation, for your investment in Safe Haven Farms. https://bit.ly/3WZOed0 All Points North Foundation

Solar Expansion Complete - A Dream Fulfilled
Since the official opening of Safe Haven Farms in 2010, we have envisioned having solar to supply our energy needs. Now 13 years later, our vision has come full circle. Thanks to the generous support of All Points North Foundation, Safe Haven Farms has been able to add the final phase to our solar array. This phase will add 25.4 kW to our current 69 kW PV-DC system. Moving forward Safe Haven Farms is on track to save an additional 12% on our monthly electric bills with a total annual savings of close to 38%. These savings will allow us to focus more funding on vital farm programs and much needed farm improvements to support adults with developmental disabilities. We appreciate the continued partnership with those who made this milestone possible, All Points North Foundation, Kokosing Solar, and Butler Rural Electric Cooperative. https://bit.ly/49cIeBp

Welcome Janie Cochran!
The Board of Directors at Safe Haven Farms is excited to announce the hiring of our first Executive Director, Janie Cochran. Janie comes to us from PARACHUTE: Butler County (CASA) Court Appointed Special Advocates where she was their recruitment and development specialist. Her work experience includes volunteer recruitment, fundraising event coordination, grant writing, community outreach, marketing/social media and public speaking. She is a graduate of Morehead State University and has previously worked as a high school home economics teacher and a fabric and color specialist.
Janie serves as an active member of the Middletown Chamber of Commerce, UCBMA, Hamilton Joes Board of Directors, Power of the Purse Giving Circle and has been an advisor to Miami University’s Chi Omega chapter for 20 years. She resides in Hamilton with her 2 children Chloe, a recent Miami University graduate and Gabriel, who participates in Project Life at Butler Tech.
We were thrilled that Janie had familiarity with farming. She grew up on her family’s dairy farm in Kentucky and stated that she wants the Safe Haven “farmers” to have the continued opportunity to share meaningful experiences much like she remembers from her time on the farm.
Janie will be taking on operations and functions which the Board has carried for the past ten years, so we are all delighted to have her here.
WELCOME Janie!
