Words of Wisdom:

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.

 

From the Green Team:

Living Greener in the Kitchen:

Find a source for local meat and eggs for eco-friendly protein.

Make a set of reusable beeswax wraps or snack bags to cut down on plastic waste. No time to make your own? Get a pack of three here!

If you use a dishwasher, switch to a less-caustic detergent. Or make your own dishwasher soap tablets. If you wash dishes by hand, skip the disposable plastic bottles and make this homemade dish soap.

Not ready to make your own homemade dish soap? Check out these solid dish soap bars – they’re entirely plant based and zero plastic!

Use a dish cloth instead of a sponge. Or opt for an eco-friendlier natural sponge.
