Greener Cleaner

Greener Cleaner is a multi purpose cleaner used from only fruit, yeast, brown sugar, and water. So far, the making of this cleaner has been going well. It has been working very well with cleaning all sorts of different things. Working day after day shaking and "burping" the bottles I realized that although the cleaner is made from fruit, it doesn't really smell all that good. I plan on doing some research and finding ways to make this cleaner have a much better smell. I also plan to find a way to make the cleaner in bigger batches while still being able to shake and burp it. I have also been working on designing different labels for all of the bottles and also adding more labels describing exactly what this cleaner can be used for, what the ingredients are, one informing that if the cleaner is ingested or comes into contact with skin that it isn't harmful like many other cleaners, and one letting people know that these bottles can be reused and refilled and to not dispose of the bottle.

Salad Bar!!

Our 7th hour green team class has been working together to create magnificent projects and become more efficient in all aspects of our life. The project or challenge I am overtaking is a salad bar, how cool would it be to pick your own fresh veggies for a salad, sounds pretty cool to me! During this project I will be researching irrigation and frames for the salad bar. Some fundraisers maybe best for easy purchase of this structure. My plan is to have a full green wall where students can make there own salad and admire the ability of gardening and having a fresh market. More uploads will be in the future for my upcoming ideas on this project.

Hangin' Green!

This semester there are several individual projects being done by Mrs. Hart's seventh hour Green Team class!  The project that Lyndsey Williams and I, Jayte Hamilton, are doing is called Hangin' Green!  We are creating hanging plants out of two liter pop bottles that are very efficient when it comes to getting rid of excess water!  So far we have six starter plants that are adding green to our green team classroom! We have eight plants still in the process of germinating, and one plant that has started sprouting! Pictures of this project will be soon uploaded to show you our progress on this fun, green project!

Baby Got Plant!

Baby Got Plant is a project that Sage Gurraro and I have been working on for two and a half weeks. We plant the seeds in baby food jars and keep them under grow lights and water them every day. We will wait for them to grow and then we will transplant them into mason jars, put clamps around the jars and screw them into a board and label them below the jars. We have planted parsley, oregano, cilantro, dill and rosemary. We currently have twenty-six jars with plants in them and in the picture to the left are the four fastest growing plants so far.

Greener Product Line and Concession Food Ideas

    I am currently working on Greener Flee'er. It is another small addition to the "Greener" product line. I will use citrus fruits as the base because those little vermin's do NOT  like citrus fruits. On to another matter... FOOD!!! For the "Tornado" food line I have Tornado Mac-n-Cheese Pizza, Tornado Apple Turnovers, Sweet Potato Tornado Dogs, Tornado Cookies, Tornado Cake, Fried Tornado Onions, Salad Tornadoes, and a few more. These would go on the Tornado exclusive food menu for concessions along with the classic Tornado Dog, Tornado Caramel Apples, and the non-list "Tornado" items like Monkey on a Stick and Dirt and Worm Cup. I have a few other ideas on that line to add in the dessert category like baklava, a Greek dessert, and dessert nachos. I wasn't quite sure how well a grill would work, maybe during football games, but Texas Rat Tails, cream cheese stuffed jalapeno peppers wrapped in bacon and grilled, and banana boats, stuffed bananas filled with pecans chocolate chips and marshmallows grilled. YUM!!!
Here are a few pictures of a few of my ideas. Baklava, Dessert Nachos, Banana Boats, Texas Rat Tails. Email me about what you think of the ideas at hmoore@stu.389ks.org.
