The Zero Waste Home

Cutting down on plastic use and going zero-waste is something we can all agree is good for the environment, but for those new to the movement, it can be a little intimidating or overwhelming.

Wondering how to use wax wraps? SuperBee reusable beeswax wraps are a great way to cut down on waste in the kitchen…but replacing your plastic wrap with this eco-friendly option is just the start!

After heavy use, the wool in your dryer balls can start drying out themselves. This means they become less useful at absorbing moisture and therefore in need of a bit of TLC. By caring for your wool dryer balls, you’ll ensure they last even longer — a money-saving trick for your laundry and a nice little boost for the environment, too.

As a child, my Mum used to bake fresh wholewheat bread for us every week. Loaves for toast in the morning and rolls to take to school in our packed lunches. How lucky were we? 

There are actions you can take to make your food delivery habit a little more green, from ditching single-use cutlery to storing leftovers with sustainable alternatives to plastic wrap.

We are told we should reduce reuse and recycle to reduce our waste but recycling is not always as efficient as it seems. Buying eco friendly, reusable household products is the best solution.

Hexawash, our popular all-natural laundry detergent alternative was developed during lockdown 2020 – proof that some good things have emerged from these very testing times! It uses magnesium, not harsh chemicals to clean clothes.

True zero-waste travel is impossible. (And we won’t even start on how detrimental to the environment flying is!)

This holiday season, it’s time to think about your consumer impact, thoughtfully engage your community and get creative with your gifting!

From disposable diapers to new school supplies, countless items of clothing to even more snacks, raising kids in today’s world involves a lot of stuff.
