Disclaimer!

It has come to our attention that 'Valley Gate' has religious connotations. For those of you who have arrived here expecting an allegory on the Gates of Jerusalem, you are going to be sorely disappointed! 'Valley Gate' is the name of the house and the association derives from the name of our road. Valley Farm is just down the road......

Bio Diesel Update

Since April 2010 we have been collecting waste vegetable oil (WVO) from a cafe in Narberth and one in Pembroke Dock.  It generally comes in 20 litre plastic or metal containers which have slowly been taking over!

We therefore bought 3no. 1,000 litre IBC Tanks; two for the oil and one to collect rainwater from the barn roof.


This weekend we finally got around to moving the tank into its now permanent home and started filling it with the VWO.  The next challenge is what to do with all the empty plastic containers.

Still no diesel car, but will continue to stockpile (we have around 1,200 litres so far!) the feedstock for future use!
