Biodiesel on the Farm workshops in Oregon in December


BIODIESEL ON THE FARM WORKSHOPS IN DECEMBER

Curious about using biodiesel on your farm or ranch, in your nursery operation or vineyard? Join us for a day-long workshop featuring experts from Idaho, Washington and Oregon. Learn about:

* production and processing of oilseed feedstock for biodiesel
(including what to do with the processing by-products),
* small scale processing options for making biodiesel on-farm,
* biodiesel use in agricultural equipment,
* storage and handling of biodiesel, and
* federal and state financial incentives for using biodiesel in
your agricultural operation.

This workshop will be held in two Oregon locations:

* 1 December 2005 at the CH2MHill Alumni Center on the OSU Campus,
Corvallis
* 8 December 2005 at the Pendleton Conference Center, Pendleton

Workshops will run from 8 am to 4:30 pm, and lunch will be provided.

Admission is $25, and pre-registration is required.

To register or if you have questions, contact Kathy Hyzy, at kathyh@oeconline.org or 503.222.1963 x105

These workshops are hosted by the Oregon Environmental Council and are made possible through a generous grant from the Lamb Foundation.
