Fun

Here's some pics of recent Be Kind activities:



Oct. 1. Columbus Farm Festival in Columbus. Explaining biodiesel to glycerin to Be Kind's WARHORSE Cleaning Soap and Primitive body soaps. So windy the tent tops blew off. What I'm telling my audience...I have no idea. I think I'm watching the wind propel a horseless carriage across the road and into the firetruck...no injuries.




Mountain View Restaurant hosted a Be Kind Product Demonstration Oct. 2. Michelle Fagan and her mother, who showed up pre-game since she already cleans with WARHORSE and uses Primitive Body Soap, are some of Be Kind's biggest fans. Michelle likes lemon scented WARHORSE, BUT sometimes she doesn't follow the label instructions, "Yes, only a teaspoon in a quart of water for windows, Michelle." If and when I need a sales manager for Be Kind, Michelle is the woman.



Lots of people learned about our biodiesel production and glycerin distillation. Then, we cleaned some greasy jeans, red-wine stained linen napkins, stainless steel, glass. Plus, customers got to use the WARHORSE themselves and try out the glycerin body soaps. Thanks to everyone.




Oct. 15. Former PCHS student Katie Wall visited me at my biodiesel demonstration at the Dark Corner Distillery during Fall for Greenville. Katie and her family came to support Joe and Roxanne's new DCD endeavor. Polk County "family" is starting to show up to see what their former classmate and friends have got going on in downtown Greenville. The DCD's copper handcrafted still and process is something to see.



Oct. 19. PCHS seniors Jacob Hrobak gets help from Matthew Walker completing a titration to make 1 liter batches of biodiesel using oil from the Polk County High cafeteria. These two are working on their senior Graduation Project and will be heading to Appalachian State on Oct. 31 to meet with biofuel graduate students.



Collaboration. Matthew made biodiesel last semester in his AP Chem class with Mr. Zelevsky. If PCHS gets a processor on campus, we'll be asking Wendy's for some used cooking oil for biodiesel production. Lots of students eat those Wendy's fries...
