[Stoves] Manure fuel at Stove Camp Fwd: The Aprovecho Newsletter - June 27th, 2014

Sat Jun 28 18:23:23 CDT 2014

Hi Paul,

We'll have: rabbit, goat, sheep pellets and cow and horse dung and we're
looking for more. (Searching for deer and elk).

Please bring your favorites to Stove Camp!

We'll also demonstrate results from the study now on going by Gabriela,
Maddy, and Jessie on cleanest found fuels from the surrounding forest. Try
them in your TLUD and see how clean you can get!

We have dryers available. The best moisture content is yet to be determined
so we hope to solve that at Camp.

We're in the new Blue Mountain campus: 5.5 acres in the forest right next
to a lovely river to swim in. And there's a huge lab, lots of covered
outdoor space, an auditorium, new Test Kitchen,  and a lovely cafeteria
where great meals and snacks will be available. July 21-25. Two parties and
our house band (CoGro) will sing you the new "Blue Mountain" song.

Sign up by contacting Mike: mikehatfield at aprovecho.org

Best,

Dean
