SUMMARY:Solar Cookers and Rocket Stoves Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Power gone out?  Planning on going camping or off-grid\, and want alternative ways to cook?  Join us for this exciting 90 minute Zoom webinar on Solar Cookers and Rocket Stoves on Thursday\, March 25th from 7:00 to 8:30 pm.\nCam Farnell\, Transition Bay\, will be presenting on a variety of solar cookers available today\, as well as some usages of his own stoves.  Learn ways to use them and even how to build simple ones. The presentation will be about two solar cookers in particular: a GoSun and a Solar Sizzler. The GoSun is an evacuated glass tube plus a curved reflector. Food goes into the glass tube on a long\, narrow\, metal sleeve. It’s a bit like a glass thermos bottle with a big opening at the end. The Solar Sizzler is a plastic parabolic reflector\, about a metre in diameter\, that concentrates sunlight onto a pot or pan. \n \nMike Batty\, Deanery Project\, is an Architectural and Permaculture designer with design preferences for sustainable\, passive\, beneficial\, and natural building designs. It is his continuing goal to educate and promote the use of Rocket Stoves and Rocket Mass Heaters\, and has been giving this type of presentations in western Canada and Cuba\, as well at the Deanery Project on the Eastern Shore. \nFor this presentation\, he will be exploring rocket stove cookers. We will learn a short history and the introduction of rocket stoves that saved lives.  We will also investigate the basic design requirements\, which will include operation and materials needed to construct one. Examples will be shown to illustrate the diverse designs and uses of rocket stoves. We might even have enough time to also expand on how to heat our home and not just cook a meal. \n   \nThis event is co-sponsored by Transition Bay and the Deanery Project. It is free (donations appreciated!) and requires registration through Eventbrite.\n \nWe will be conducting this event on Zoom with livestreaming to Facebook\, and we will send you the Zoom link via Eventbrite email prior to the presentation.
