Equity-based crowd fund to help Holgate brewhouse to go solar

Paul and Natasha Holgate have some exciting news to announce: the opportunity for members of the community to buy shares in their business via an equity-based crowd fund to the public. In that way people can invest in solar and in Holgate brewhouse.

Join them at Holgate Brewhouse in Woodend this Friday 2 August from 5pm for nibbles and $7 pints of Draught Lager and Mt Macedon Pale Ale - and hear their special announcement at 7pm.

The evening will also be raising funds and awareness for the EJ Whitten Foundation for Prostate Cancer Research at Epworth.

The Solar Beer crowd funding model was inspired by the Renewable Energy action group of MRSG, who have been doing great things in renewable energy around the Shire for years.  The solar systems on Woodend, New Gisborne primary schools, the Woodend Cricket and Tennis Clubs are just some examples of their work.  They have bigger plans ahead, in the form of an Energy Park that will power all the homes in the Shire.  All power to them!
