Trailer: Good Neighbours: “Farms, Turbines + Towns” Crookwell NSW
Trailer: “Farms, Turbines + Towns”
Gundungurra Country, (Crookwell, NSW)
Dimity Taylor lives with her family less than 2 km from the Gullen Range Wind Farm.
Dimity's neighbor isn't Mrs Mangles—it's a wind farm.
Dimity loves to watch the turbines at sundown, relaxing with her family, enjoying the view.
Powering more than 70,000 homes, the wind farm is also a cherished part of the community who are reaping the benefits now.
Showing up as a really good neighbour, grants from the wind farm support local favorites, like the pony club, Crookwell Devils Junior Rugby League and community hall, where bookclubs and a community space bring people together.
As a physio and health worker, she has no worries living near a wind farm.
According to Dimity, nor do the sheep, the horse or the dog mind living near the turbines.
While Dimity is deeply concerned about the health impacts of climate change, she says the wind turbines calm her, knowing they are creating a safer, more secure, healthier + affordable renewable energy future for her kids and everyone in the region.
