Going Green

- Recycle – Use cloth, reusable shopping bags
I have been doing this for almost a year now

- Take quicker showers – If it’s yellow, let it mellow
We can only stand to do this at night. But it’s a start.

- Grow a garden
And we love it. Having vegetables and herbs at our front door is awesome.

- Get produce from local growers
We shop at the local Farmer’s Market.

- Turn off the water when brushing teeth
I have always done this.

- Use the same towel 3 or 4 times after showers to save on laundry
Done, done, done and done.

- Make and use eco, human and pet friendly laundry soap and household cleaners
I just started this and I am shocked that the products work so well. I was a little put off that the laundry detergent doesn’t sud, but then I found out that the chemicals that cause the sudsing are pretty bad for you.

- Compost
Starting this this week.

- Buy things that are either not packaged or minimally packaged
Trying, but still having trouble.
