Don Anacleto and Kiln Improvements


Don Anacleto will be taking charge of biochar and compost operations. Anacleto has been part of the agriculture team for the last year and we're very excited to have him working on production and maintenence of biochar!





In December, biochar production was briefly stopped for the holidays and to do maintenance on the machine. Most importantly, the floor, which previously was cracked and holding a lot of water was replaced. The biomass carts have also been redesigned and some insulation has been replaced. Around the time that all repairs were finished in January, the power in Kosnipata went out for about 25 days. Last week, the power came back on and we're back in the business of making biochar daily!
