Reuse Recycle and a New Direction

In short, the name of this blog is changing from 'Green Cleaning' to 'Live Culture Club'.

My personal journey started with wanting to reduce the environmental chemicals my family are exposed to. A natural extension of that is to also look at what is going into our bodies.  There are some awesome resources out there for natural living and eating I would like to help get them out to the wider community. Unfortunately, in this day and age the marketing $$$ from big pharma and grocery conglomerates makes it harder for independent voices to be heard. 

* Sure, you can buy a freeze dried powdered health probiotic for about $30 a month, but does it activate before it runs its course through our bodies?
* Sure, you can buy a good quality natural yoghurt in the shops, but how old is it and any live microbes left by the time you put in on your bircher muesli?
* Sure, you can buy a sachet of pre-measured freeze dried yoghurt, and place it in the Easy Yo flask. But, do you want to be spending $4 per litre and eating 18% sugar (for the fruit ones) yoghurt?


I have realised that I can use some kitchen hacks to make my own fresh low cost yoghurt, probiotic skin cleaners and cleaners at home with basic kitchen utensils and a bit of time.

Some of the microbial things you can easily make at home.....
Garbage Enzyme Cleaner * Esky Yoghurt * Milk Kefir * Coconut Kefir * Worm Juice * Compost * Fermented Foods

I'm hoping this blog will be a resource for my generation and the one to follow.
