The farm
kitchen was filled with the sweet-smelling aroma of eco-cleaning products last
month, during a workshop run by Friends of the Farm (FOF) members Meredith,
Caroline and Ella. They were joined by nine
others, keen to try their hand at concocting their own environmentally-friendly
foaming handwash, toilet bombs, all-purpose cleaner, cleaning paste,
dishwashing powder and air-freshener!
The group
included some first timers to FOF events, a few young mums having some
“me-time” and friends enjoying a fun outing together. Of note, two participants came in proudly sporting
their Tote All Recall bags.
The recipes were taken from Wendyl Nissen’s website and used
everyday ingredients from home. “Everything was ridiculously easy to make!”,
said Meredith. Workshop participants
were able to take home samples of each of the products along with instructions
for making them again.
One attendee commented later that “all the products have worked
well and the cleaning chores were noticeably smelling sweeter”. All in all, it was a lovely time of chatting
and productivity.
