Cheap, fun thrills to clean up spills (and other household duties!)

What’s it all about?

Green Cleaning is a vastly more sustainable and safe approach to tackle that mother of household chores… cleaning. Using the most simple and accessible of materials, a little creativity, some very basic scientific explanation, and guaranteed NO extra elbow grease we will have you knocking over the housework with time to get down to barefoot bowls and extra money in your pocket for a round! Did I mention NO EXTRA ELBOW GREASE?

What will we cover?

After a quick look at the ups for green cleaning, note we are not avoiding the downs – there just aren’t any that we know of, we will look at:

  • what you need
  • the jobs at hand from showers, sinks, kitchens, floors, laundry
  • tried and true DIY, eco alternatives to ALL the rubbish commercial products on the market
  • and for the geeks, a little bit of chit chat over how it all works

And throughout this you will be hand making a treasure trove of green cleaning products to take home for an immediate start to your commitment to a more sustainable life! Awesome right?

BONUS we will be exploring the exciting realm of using soap nuts as an all round detergent replacement. Yes, I said SOAP NUTS!

Who will be teaching it?
