Hello. I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to this special edition of New Hampshire Outlook-- Making It in New Hampshire.
We launched this series in 2005 to profile individuals and businesses producing goods in the state. We begin with a topic on a lot of people's mind.
High oil prices.
Escalating costs have prompted many NH residents to seek alternative sources for heat this winter -- and that has translated into booming business for New England Wood Pellet.
For 15 years, the company has been turning recycled wood into burnable pellets
and in the process has become one of the largest wood pellet operations in the country.
We travel to Jaffery -- where Outlook Videographer Steve Giordani introduces us to the company's owner Steve Walker -- who explains how it all works.

The average consumer uses 3-tons of wood pellets to heat their home for a season.
Pellets cost about 200-dollars per ton.
New England Wood Pellet is doing so well it plans to expand --and is looking at building a new plant this spring.
script iconIntro MINH/Lollipop

We continue our look at Making It in New Hampshire with "The Lollipop Tree"-- a family-owned specialty-food
manufacturer based in Portsmouth.
