If it is biodiesel or vegetable oil you are after, the "holy grail" for everyone is the website biodiesel.infopop.cc http://biodiesel.infopop.cc/6/ubb.x?a=cfrm&s=447609751
It has a very easy search feature right at the top of the page.
It is also the most popular site, with very informative contributors. There are over 113,000 posts on Biodiesel and 71,000 posts on vegetable oil. And those are just 2 of the 12 categories. I think you'll be quite satisfied.
If you're looking to make your own ethanol here is a site with an article that just happens to be from Chicago - http://www.ethanol-still.us/
Good luck on your quest to become petroleum free!

If you also consider ethanol a biofuel you might look at this as well as the biodiesel sites:
