Phase II

Ok, we didn't make it into the final round. It's all right. There's so much work to be done. We'll blow them away next year.

Lots of R & D in our future:

I want to find some stellar organic prints that haven't saturated the market.

I need to source sustainable notions: snaps, elastic, etc.

So there's o.c., soy, bamboo, hemp, seacell available, but are they really sustainable? should we maybe be focusing on utilizing all the under-used discarded textiles that are on their way to landfills?
any great ideas for recycling fabrics in ways that don't create victims-of-patchwork?

I could also use some help creating patterns for kids and girl-babies.

Any leads on an infant dress-form?

Ooh, also, who makes organic labels?

Eco Fuel Update #1

Our plan has been turned in...

We submitted 6 copies to the Eureka Reporter at 4:30 on Monday, half an hour before the deadline. Many weeks of works and and very little sleep went into the creation of our plan.

We want to thank the Arkleys, the Eureka Reporter, and the Economic Fuel staff for giving us this chance to create this business plan. Regardless of the outcome of the contest, there will soon be another means of creating wealth in Humboldt.

Extra special thanks go to Nancy & Chris for the great class.

Extra extra extra thanks go to the team...Ravenna, Matt, Alex, and Mice Elf.
