May 29th - June 11th
In early June of 2006, Common Vision will be training mechanics, community members, and local youth in South Central Los Angeles how to convert diesel engines to run on Straight Vegetable Oil. The program, a ten day training in converting engines, maintaining vehicles, and processing fuel will run from May 29th to June 11th and will include the conversion of two vehicles. Working with local non-profit Community Services Unlimited, Common Vision will be converting a 1971 Gillig school bus into a veggie powered flatbed/school bus that will serve as the primary vehicle for a mobile student-run organic farmer's market. Through this project the South Central Community will not only gain the knowledge to develop localized alternative fuel systems, but also gain more access to nutritious food through the mobile farmer's market.
