This Is Us

  For over 10 years I have been using deodorant that I make. I started having problems with commercial deodorant, I tried so many different brands. I would get red bumps, it wouldn't work longer than a couple hours, it would leave hard clumps on my shirts, or it would make me itch. One day I was talking with a friend about all the problems, and she said that her mom makes deodorant for her. I asked her what she puts in it and she wasn't sure, but that it had coconut oil and essential oils. After doing a lot of research I was able to put together a recipe that worked really well. The only problem is it would melt fairly easy if the temperature got about 75.  I recently found that adding beeswax would help with the melting point. I added beeswax and now it has a higher heat tolerance and it makes the deodorant have a smoother texture. It also has antifungal, antimicrobial, and antibacterial properties. I also started using unrefined coconut oil, so it smells like coconuts. I had...

Companion Planting Guide Have you ever been out gardening and planting seeds, then thought… “Ooh… Can these carrots be planted with tomatoes?” Well, I have!  Then I spend a good amount of time looking on my phone trying to figure out which plants can be planted by each other, and which ones cannot. Wouldn't it be wonderful to have all the plant companions in one easy place? Well, you're in luck.  I have created plant companion guides that you can keep on your phone.  That way while you are outside planting, all you have to do is open the guides and quickly know which plants companions and which ones are enemies. I have also included some growing instructions and some of the health benefits of each fruit or vegetable. They are available for purchase in our  Etsy Shop Here is a sample:

  I am setting up an email list.  I am hoping to have it done very soon.  If you would like to join keep an eye out for the sign up! When you join our email list we will give you a free digital copy of the list we created of cool weather crops. You will be able to save it on your phone, so when you are getting ready to plant, it's right there with you. I'm hoping to be able to share my knowledge with you and anything else that I learn. Here is the picture I created to put in our first email.  :) What do you think?
