Virginia Governor Tim Kaine, along with his Cabinet and members of his staff will be visiting a biodiesel plant Thursday as part of the first “Cabinet Community Day” of 2009. The Governor holds four such events each year, visiting eight regions of the state twice over the course of the administration.

The governor will visit Red Birch Energy – the first and only “closed loop system” delivery system for biodiesel in the United States. Red Birch Energy grows the crop, produces the fuel and sells the fuel all in one location, minimizing transportation costs.

Governor Kaine will also visit the Virginia Employment Commission, the Virginia Museum of Natural History and the Martinsville Speedway as part of the event.
