Location 1
    Portland Rose Gardens. The best roses in the world are grown here for the annual Rose Festival and parade, but the Gardens host tours through most of the year. The gardeners and caretakers here are the best in the world when it comes to roses, and they also do well with several other species of flowering plants, such as orchids. Come here any time you have a question about growing something, and chances are you can find your answers.

Location 2.
    SynthFuels. A direct competitor for Biotechnica and other agricorps, SynthFuels has delved deeply into the field of synthetic fuels, trying to break the CHOOH2 stranglehold. They have had some success, but have not managed to break into the common market as yet. The City of Portland is currently using SynthFuels' "Agas" (for AgriGas, their primary product derived from various meta-alcohol combinations) in all City vehicles, but the general public hasn't caught on yet because of the modifications needed and lack of availability outside the area. Agas burns cleaner than CHOOH2, but is more costly to produce and therefore the retail price would be higher. The company is currently lobbying to have the state tighten the emissions laws, which would force CHOOH2 out.
