West Virginia Weselyan

Dr. James Moore, interim president of West Virginia Wesleyan College said, “We’re so thankful to Dr. Pickering, and the USDA, for the opportunity to be a part of a more sustainable world. It’s so important that we at Wesleyan lead by example and embrace alternative energy solutions, and I’m proud that we are able to be part of ensuring that these sorts of projects are advanced.”
