Rep. Tim Burchett

I was like, man, that's a business idea.

I said, dump that stuff here.

So they dumped it and I composted it.

And I had a crazy, incredible garden.

Squash, beans, strawberries, tomatoes, of course.

And I fed the church, the neighborhood, everybody come by the house.

I had friends and enemies.

I gave them a sack of tomatoes.

Well, fast forward, I went to college, six years of undergraduate studies at the University of Tennessee.

I thoroughly enjoyed my college career, six years of studies.

I didn't drink or smoke pot and it still took me six years.

Ended up agreeing to technological adult education.

I was certified to teach shop, took a few art classes, and apparently I got an art certification, I think, on my certificate, I believe.

But anyway, so I can weld and fix motors, and I can burn your house down if you need it wired.

I can't do that very well.

But in all the other machine shop stuff, I can do that, or I could at the time.

So I came up with this idea of taking all the city's yard waste, and I presented it to then the city mayor.

I said, what are y'all doing with it?

I said, we take it to the landfill.

And they could pay me a reduced fee of what they take it to the landfill.
