Do you have woody debris you are looking to get rid of? Turn your debris into biochar, a valuable resource that can build your soil nutrients and structure. Through the High Country Biochar Kiln Loan Program, you can rent a kiln free of charge and make your own!
Two types of kilns will be available to rent: 1- The Oregon kiln is good for small to medium size producers and makes up to 1.4 cubic yard of biochar in about 4 hours. You will need approximately 3-4 cubic yards of feedstock for one burn. 2- The Ring of Fire is a good option if you would like to produce larger amounts of biochar or if multiple farms want to get together for a bigger burn. This biochar kiln program is organized and sponsored by NC Cooperative Extension, App State's NEXUS Project, and 澳门新葡京博彩官网. The Biochar Kiln Loan project was originally started by Working Landscapes, a non-profit based in Warren County, NC, who has passed on the project to different organizations throughout Western NC. We are working together to provide Biochar kilns for farmers in the High Country. For more information or any questions, email [email protected]. |
