What a great use for a locally grown product. A great way to help our local economy and display to the oil kings “it can be done.” I feel it is also a great way to support the incomes of local farmers who pay taxes to run our schools. I will guess that in a few years, farmers will grow a product on marginal land that will be made into pellets that we can also burn.
