Is there biochar making/using tucked away somewhere? I don’t recall seeing it anywhere.

I understand that there is a lot within the forum about biochar. But my question is about the PEP badges. Is it included in any of those?

Nope, no mention of biochar in the PEP badges.  I believe Paul isn't a proponent of biochar so that's why it doesn't appear.  I think there's an offhand suggestion in a rocket mass heater BB to save the ash for the garden and the charcoal for other uses (like biochar) but that's about it.
