Words of Wisdom:

The real things haven’t changed, it is still best to be honest and truthful; to make the most of what we have; to be happy with simple pleasures; and have courage when things go wrong.

~Laura Ingalls Wilder

From the Green Team:

The most environmentally friendly thing you can do with soft plastics (especially single-use plastics) is reduce your consumption of them. Simple changes like carrying a reusable water bottle or coffee cup can significantly cut down plastic waste. You could also opt for reusable shopping bags and choose products with minimal or no plastic packaging.
