Local Boy Makes Good


For those of you who may have missed it or live outside the Waco area, our very own David Cole, farm manager here at WHRI, made it on to the cover of the Waco-Trib today with an article highlighting the recent conversion of his diesel pickup to run on vegetable oil

While we are very proud of David, the best dang farm manager around, we were a little surprised to see that the article made no mention of the real reason that he first became interested in using vegetable oil as an alternative fuel source - his frightening addiction to chicken fingers.  Seriously.  He needs help.

The New York Times ran an article about the growing trend of used grease for fuel and thus, the growing market that the restaurants can acclimate to. The article mostly focused on thefts occurring at food places instead of deals worked out with small owners and individuals. It is catching on pretty quick.
