Plum Nellie is located in the rolling hills of southeast Cloud County, just northwest of Miltonvale. The area is a mix of cropland, hay fields, and pastures. The project complements the area’s mixed agricultural landscape, providing local farmers with a stable, weather-resistant cash crop in the form of landowner lease payments.
Plum Nellie Wind Farm yields significantly in the form of payments to landowners, local spending, and annual community investment. Plum Nellie Wind Farm is also compatible with other land uses and provides a stable form of income to local landowners.
