You can do this but the circuit(s?) that go to each building have to have a service rated disconnect where it (they) enters the structure and the equipment grounding conductor must tie to the buildings grounding electrode system.

rick,
Do each of the six buildings have their own service? If so check with the AHJ. It appears that the intent of 225.30 and 230.2 is to limit each building to a single source of supply. The words do not exactly say that, but I would clear it with the AHJ before proceeding.
