<b>Rocket Stove Workshop<br />

Here in the Pacific Northwest, it's important for everyone to learn how to heat their homes without using fossil fuels or large amounts of electricity.<br />
<br />
Wood is an abundant resource, and can be sustainable if harvested ethically and used efficiently. Rocket mass heaters burn cleaner than<br />
traditional wood stoves, takes less fuel to run, can be used for cooking and heating water simultaneously as its generating heat, and<br />
can be built mostly from recycled and locally sourced materials.<br />
