NORWICH – One area organization is taking its campaign for renewable resources on the road to Eastern Pennsylvania this Saturday for the first “Energy Fair,” a showcase of environmentally safe and community accessible power sources.

Representatives from the Chenango County Farm Bureau have been invited to the fair, located in Lackawaxen, PA, to present their progress in developing alternative energy projects locally.

“This will be a great, hands on event that shows people there are other ways of being more efficient with our energy,” said Farm Bureau President Bradd Vickers.

Lackawaxen is located roughly 75 miles Southeast of Binghamton.

Headed to the expo with Vickers will be his wife Rainy and bureau Vice President and Plymouth resident Giff Foster, who co-operates a bio-diesel production plant, Creative Energy Solutions, in Bainbridge.

This weekend Foster will be displaying his pick-up truck, which runs 100 percent on waste vegetable oil from deep fryers. He says using waste oil has increased his mileage from 17 to 30 miles per gallon. That’s not all it’s improved, either.
