Maybe it's the Move from the City....

Maybe it's the move from city life to the beautiful open spaces of the country, where wildlife is abundant and nature blooms in all directions, or maybe it's the progression from an organic, clean-eating lifestyle to the addition and research of organic skin care, or maybe its a mix of those and an increased awareness of toxic chemicals, that's triggered an intense need within me to start to detox and simplify our lives and basically start to live a more simple, non-toxic, fewer chemicals, organic kind of life.

We decided we will work towards creating a more simplistic life by embracing the true wonders this Earth has to offer by using or creating safe household and beauty products, enjoying wonderful organic garden-fresh recipes, and getting the kids involved with kid-friendly useful projects, and in return we will feed our planet by gardening and composting, providing habitats for wildlife, birds and bees, and using safer ingredients that won't harm the Earth.

Our family encourages you and yours to follow along with us on this journey and to join in with us anyway you can or choose.

We will be bringing you:

• Organic gardening and container gardening ideas and tips
• Garden-fresh recipes
• DIY health and beauty recipes
• DIY household recipes
• Bee-friendly projects
• Healthy family Tips
• Kid-friendly projects
• Safe, organic and effective product recommendations
• And, I'm sure, Much, Much More!

There is real beauty in simplicity.  Simple ingredients, simple products, simple meals, simple living.

Feel free to share your personal journey, ideas, tips, etc. with us, we would love to hear from you!
