I'm Nick Peterson, the owner of Tiny Wood Stove and Throne Composting Toilets.  In high school, I participated in a work-study program. It was terrible. Businesses partnered with the school for cheap labor. Through this experience, I developed a valuable work ethic, but I missed the opportunity to learn so much more.
