Non-Toxic + Sustainable Living

Sustainability has always been at the heart of my homestead—it’s the reason I began learning these skills in the first place. When we welcomed our first child, something shifted in me. I felt a deep desire to build the best home possible for our family—one rooted in health, intention, and stewardship.

That spark led me down a path of research and experimentation, from zero-waste swaps to cooking from scratch. Bit by bit, I started weaving those changes into our everyday life.

It didn’t happen overnight. I began with small steps—cutting down on plastic in the kitchen, swapping out conventional cleaners for simple homemade ones—and kept going from there.

In this space, I share what I’ve learned through the process, including:

• Toxic-free homemade bath and body products – from simple chamomile bath salts to DIY bath bombs
• Natural cleaning recipes – like my favorite Thieves-inspired cleaner made without essential oils
• Everyday sustainability practices – shopping secondhand, filtering our water, and much more

Each small shift adds up to something meaningful. You don’t have to do it perfectly—what matters most is starting where you are and growing from there.
