Spring "Greening" Tips

It's finally springtime, and spring cleaning time. How about turning it into spring greening? First, the laundry. Wash only full loads, use cold water whenever possible, hand your clothes and they will be so fresh!

Second, use Hydrogen Peroxide to clean most things instead of bleach and save your lungs and the oceans.


  • Soak your toothbrushes in peroxide to keep them free from germs, use it as teeth whitening - way cheaper than other methods!


  • Clean your counter tops with it, kills germs and bacteria - same with your cutting board, keep some in a spray bottle.


  • Soak any infections or fungus on your body in it


  • A cup of peroxide in laundry keeps it white and bright


  • It cleans mirrors streak free!

Third, plant your garden with organic seeds and soil, and plant food. You can follow my son Jesse Grimes' adventures in his garden in Dana Point. He calls it the Trailer Trash Gardener at: http://jessebythesea.blogspot.com/ He is planting an organic garden in his yard at his mobile home, proving you can reap lots of food in a tiny space.
