Description:
5 years ago i had an idea for a product. After volunteering at the USDA department of agriculture in Albany, Ca, they helped me develop my product, and i now have a joint Patent with the USDA, and currently trying to push my product into the production stage.
My product is a Fire log, much like "DURA FLAME", only my log is made with 98% grass clippings and yard waste. threw OMNI testing and the EPA we found that the log release almost zero emissions into the air, allowing us to add fragrances and possibly bug repellent. Also in this testing we found that we burn longer, and hotter than DureFlame. I have visited local Waste management facilities and received letters of consent saying delivering the yard waste to me would be easier and a cost benefit to them, they also state that the yard waste would be put to better use than transported to landfills where it sits for 2-3 years.
To make a long story short, my product would not only help the environment but also create jobs. The city of Pittsburg, CA has evan consented to giving me a work space. I just help to get materials. Please help.
if you would like to hear a more in depth version of my story/struggle. please contact me threw this site. Thankyou
