Efficient, elegant and functional cook stoves:
Made by teens from locally sourced green materials!
About rocket stoves: An ancient though ever useful stove design, found in many places across time and space on Earth, rocket stoves burn much hotter, cleaner, and faster than simple camp or cook fires due to their proportions of chimney, chute and door... with no moving parts!
Almost totally smokeless, they can cook food, boil water, or heat spaces with a minimal amount of fuel - saving time from having to harvest, split and store large pieces of fire wood; saving trees by burning small sticks & coppice; and saving climate, by eliminating smoke particles, saving trees, and providing alternatives to fuel fossil cooking.

The Ape & Ape Rocket Scientist Corps employs teens from the Valley to harvest, design, mix, create, decorate and sell these stoves at local venues and markets. This hands-(& feet)-on program offers valuable work experience, practical skills, a foundation of design and green building, and business and marketing experience.
