Madison County native Joe Newberry now relies on solar panels at his pecan farm Newberry Pecan Farm, which has operated in Ardmore since 1989.
The business has evolved from being a humble pecan tree nursery to full pecan production operation including shaking, processing and bagging pecans. The farm houses 1,500 pecan trees (40 times what the farm started with!) and owner Joe continues to innovate his family-owned business.
