Welcome to the Pacific Northwest Biochar Initiative

This conversation is for people working with Biochar in the Pacific Northwest States of the USA, with some help from the occasional participant from outside the region that works and/or studies within the region. The purpose of this group is practical in nature. If you'd like to learn more about Biochar, take a look at the great information from the US Biochar Intiative and the International Biochar Initiative, and Biochar at Bioenergylists.org

Please keep posts on topic and civil, and remember that this a public forum.
Thanks!
