The Rocket stove has landed in Cebu at Katunggan Permaculture Adventure Farm

In December 2010, we made our own rocket stoves

We based it on the design of Dr. Winiarski at the Aprovecho Center.

We distributed these stoves to our staff as a Christmas gift,

the gift of self-reliance in cooking.

In line with that we started a firewood club program,

where our staff members can have access to free firewood.

Our wood comes from the trees  at the Katunggan Permaculture Adventure Farm

that regularly shed of their lower branches,

just the right size for our biomass rocket stove.

Our staff have been using their stoves for three months now.

Their neighbors started to get  interested in these stoves.

These  are fuel efficient wood burning stoves.

So, we searched the net 

to see if we could collaborate with an organization 

that mass produces these biomass rocket stoves.

We found two groups-

Stovetec and Envirofit.

Envirofit has been distributing biomass stoves in India and Africa.

Luckily, Envirofit International is now in the Philippines.

So, the rocket stove has now landed in Cebu.

As part of our  Corporate Social Responsibility-

Cultivating Self-Reliance Program,

We have started our Staff Envirofit Distributorship Program.

We have partnered with Envirofit Philippines,

in order that our staff can distribute these biomass rocket stoves

to their neighbors and friends.

So, if any of you are interested 

in having a fuel efficient biomass rocket cookstove,

approach any staff member of the ff companies:

Mayflower Inn, West Gorordo Hotel, Elicon House, 

Gelato Eliseo and Mayflower Realty.

They will be willing to explain to you -

how to make your own,

 how these cookstoves work,

how they help our planet, 

and of course,

how much they cost, 

if you want to buy one or two or more...
