Plastic-Free February (continued)

[emma_in_dream]

In February I did a quick evaluation of where I could make some easy changes. I'm afraid small changes and baby steps are where I am at.

So, I've gotten rid of plastic straws. We now use metal ones which can be washed and reused easily.

And we have gone with a new shopping regime. I shop online for most stuff and go to the Subi Farmers Market for fruit and vegetables and, best of all, milk. I found a milk supplier who offers organic milk in glass bottles (Sunnydale). So, a few small improvements in our life.

Sometimes it's the little things that matter. I would not have thought about straws but then I don't use them. I do a lot of shopping online, are you talking about groceries?

Yes, I am now doing the grocery shopping online and that gives me time to get to the farmers' market for local fruit and veg and milk.

We use a lot of straws because my daughter won't drink without at least one!

Plus, the glass milk bottles are being reused to store food so I am finally able to get rid of my plastic food storage containers.
