Zero waste gifting and gift wrapping have been making its rounds online, which I love. More people are aware of the climate crisis and are trying to be more thoughtful and sustainable. But as well intentioned as these presents are, the recipients may not… ift.tt/2sWUK8u

Got boba in my own cup. 🤗 All the boba in house and it was sooo good. My fav was the black sesame! #thisphotoissustainable #zerowasteboba ift.tt/2W4b7uq

Locally grown organic microgreens in my own container from @microgreenmama at the Hollywood Farmers Market (@thehfm)! Laurette and I were both urban farmer interns who learned about beyond organic farming practices under @farmerrishi and @zerowastefarmer… ift.tt/2ZudDKw

Hello! @aurijackson and I will be teaching another Zero Waste Workshop together at @juniorhighla August 11! Attendees will receive zero waste goodies from our sponsors @brushwithbamboo, @simplystraws, and @simple_ecology. We’ll be going over our fav plas… ift.tt/2NVAm1z

Modern day zero waste is very much catered to white women with privilege, even though lower income communities of many cultures have practiced zero waste for generations. (I mean, leave the 🍪 emoji if you’ve ever opened a tin of butter cookies and di… bit.ly/31AjS1O

New blog post up on making your own spoon butter wood conditioner. I use it on our cutting boards, wooden spoons, dish brush handles, and my bamboo mason jar lid. It conditions the wood and helps repel water so your items last longer. It’s just 1 part be… bit.ly/2MikoxZ

GIVEAWAY ☀️ I’ve partnered with @joowaababy to give away one of their strollers! I love how compact and cute this Peli stroller is. The back reclines for napping on the go, it folds up quickly and easily, and the canopy comes in super cute colors. Obviou… bit.ly/2JwBvcS

New blog post up on my zero waste diaper bag 👶🏻. Using cloth at home is one thing, but I was too nervous to go out with them too 😬. Turns out it’s not much different! #zerowaste #zerowastebaby bit.ly/2ZO3JF7

At first I was intimidated by cloth diapering. Now, almost five months in and it’s just another part of my life. I’m compiling a blog post that will answer all your questions you submitted in my story last week. If you didn’t get a chance to ask, leave a… bit.ly/2XKvGMc

I added a couple of avocado dyed string bags to the shop 🥑. They are a softy dusty pink that will gradually fade with time. Made with organic cotton and comes with two handles so you can either hold it in your hand or over your shoulder. Hoping to do… bit.ly/2GBOhUJ

A friendly reminder on this beautiful Earth Day: You cannot buy yourself into a sustainable lifestyle. You cannot think of the Earth for just one day and step on poppies the next, no matter how lightly you tread. I used to believe that sustainability wa… bit.ly/2IFRR2L

Natural cotton and avocado dyed string bags. I just love this dusty pink so much. 💓🥑 When I posted the process on my story many of you asked if the color stays or fades. Yes, the pink will very gradually fade but I honestly love every shade it turns.… ift.tt/2SkzUav

Wishing I had more pumpkin pie 😭 it’s my all time favorite pie. Growing up I could eat a whole giant one from Costco myself (not in one sitting though 😂). Instead of plastic wrap I used my large @abeego. Often times I’ll use a plate as a lid/cover bu… ift.tt/2P7Kqjy

We’ve always used unscented laundry detergent but I finally tried some essential oils on my wool dryer balls. What took me so long?! It leaves the loveliest hint of a scent. So far I’ve tried lavender and grapefruit and they’re both amazing. I’m really s… ift.tt/2QlkNAm

The first day after a long weekend is always rough 😴 But I got a lot of work done including packing up your bamboo lid preorders (too many for me to do in one day—thank you!!) as well as dye some string bags that you can see in my stories 🥑 Those wil… ift.tt/2E02IlB

Washed and ready for my next farmers market trip! Remember to wash your reusable bags. You can throw these with the rest of your laundry and they air dry super quick! Pictured with my favorite tea towel by @cottonandflax. #zerowaste ift.tt/2QQxf8l

My farmers market haul 🍠🍎🥦 Over the years I’ve accumulated a number of reusable bags, but the one thing I couldn’t bring myself to purchase were cloth produce bags. I sewed a few myself but they weren’t the best craftsmanship 😅 so I didn’t love using… ift.tt/2Tkfikb

One of my favorite details from our baby shower was the DIY tea blend station. I bought a variety of herbs from @wildterra.la in bulk and set them out in little bowls. Then I labeled each ingredient with simple tags and bought 2 oz metal tins for our gue… ift.tt/2DCIrT1

I’ve been using this homemade face balm for the past 6 weeks and am really loving the results! Ever since going zero waste and being more diligent about the ingredients I put into my body and onto my skin, I tried a recipe from @marierayma’s blog Humble … ift.tt/2RSB6lm
