Ever wanted to try the refill products but didn’t want to waste money on something you don’t like? I’m going to offer a pay-what-you-can on some older stock, some of it in the Fill glass bottles. I have washing liquid, fabric conditioner and washing up liquid available for definite, and possible other bits depending on stock. I can also offer biodegradable sponges and cloths. I’ll put the normal price up as a guide but will literally accept whatever it is you are able to give. I know that the economic climate is tough and people don’t have the money to try new products.

My tiny wildlife pond. The marsh marigold is happy this year and the colour is glorious!

My tiny apple tree makes me happy. Who else chats away to their plants?

Even when I don’t post much on here, I’m always thinking about what I can do to make my bit of Earth a better place. So here is a bird box made from scraps of wood we’ve acquired from different projects. What have you all been up to?

I love this! Which ones have/will you do?

Let's play Sustainable(ish) Christmas bingo!

Christmas is a tricky time of year to make changes - it's easy to feel like a bit of fun sponge at any time of year if you're the one who is constantly gently trying to challenge to status quo of consumption, single use, and waste. And at Christmas it can be even harder with family traditions, family politics, and a general sense that (over) consumption is King (or Queen!).

My invitation with this Sustainable(ish) Christmas bingo card is to have a bit of fun, recognise and celebrate any changes you've already made, and to just have a go at one or two new things.

And then spread a little festive ripple
1) screengrab the card
2) edit:
✅ = already doing
❌ = not for me/not this year
⭕️ or 🌟 = I'm going to have a go at this year
3) Share on your own socials and invite others to join in!

Such fun! 🤩🤣
