Are you ready for Tracey’s Armchair Activist challenge?
So far we have come through our zero waste week unscathed and our landfill bin remains empty! Now we’re looking forward to our third zero waste challenge day. I want to take a moment to say thank you to all of you who are stopping by on the site, reading, leaving comments and taking part […]
The quest for zero waste honey
It shouldn’t be difficult to buy honey should it? It’s readily available in glass jars as well as the plastic squeezy containers, which always retain a bit of honey in the bottom no matter what you do. But glass jars are ok for zero waste, if they come with a metal lid, right? Well, kind […]

A zero waste celebratory tea
