Happy Earth Day 2024 to everyone!
We are in an organic farm setting so we live this climate emergency thus we are constantly trying to improve 'how' we live responsibly and most guests become interested in what we are doing.
As everyone in our area, we separate our waste (glass, plastic, metal, paper, mixed, organic).
Our kitchen scraps and grass cuttings are composted separately to use in our organic olive grove, fruit trees and the vegetable garden. We grow many herbs and flowers to attract bees.๐
The tree prunings are dried then used for the BBQ.
In keeping with the slow rural rhythm we chose to not provide an espresso machine (also a question of compost) however different sizes of Italian coffee makers.
We changed all our electric lights for LED and outside the darkness rules not only for wildlife but to see the stars better. We chose a 'normal' size refrigerator and finding less food and plastic waste.
We also leave cloth shoppers for guests, water comes in bottles from a small local distributor
and paper wrapped, natural soaps for showering, Eco tablets for the dish and clothes washer.
No clothes dryer needed....Guests tell me there is a certain poetry watching their clothes
"blowin' in the wind..."
We need to make every day Earth Day.๐
