This Thanksgiving, what are you going to do to try and cut your food waste? We haven’t quite planned yet (a little behind the ball), but I think we’ll try to incorporate as many of these elements as we can into the mix.

🏄‍♀️🌊Taking plastic from the beaches of Bali and turning them into surf fins?? Yeah! @joinfiveoceans
.
Have we told you that spending 6 weeks in Bali was a HUGE motivator for wanting to encourage others to go zero waste?  We saw how the island had been transformed over the course of almost 20 years between our first visit and the next. 😱 It was shocking. .
I came home to learn that WE, here in Santa Cruz, are now shipping our plastic through the city recycling center to Indonesia.  No more pretending it's someone else, somewhere else creating this problem! 😳
.
Find these in our shop soon! 👍🤙
Forget those plastic bottles of dish soap! These dish washing blocks were made in Los Angeles by a mother and daughter team @notoxlife ☺️
To use, you rub your sponge or scrubber on the block and wash away!  It works great and is zero waste!  It's definitely a new way of thinking about how we wash our dishes, but change is good, so embrace it!
These will be in the shop and online soon! 😄💖

Recycled wetsuit yoga mats!!! What???!! Yup. That's what's up! 
Not only will you be able to buy these in our new shop in Capitola Village (coming in the Spring!), you will also be able to bring in YOUR old wetsuits for recycling back into these mats. Rad, you say?! Why yes it is!!! @suga.yoga .

New blog post!  This time it's all about life without...paper towels!! 👏👏👏 Getting rid of paper towels was one of those things we did a long time ago and haven't looked back. Now we don't miss them. Not at all!

This is what it looks like when my husband preps for the week:. Homemade bread and pasta, a big (zero waste-ish) run to the grocery store. 
I'm so lucky 😊
