good laundry

One of the most sustainable practices we can do is laundry.

So where do we start?

Ask mom? Or an Aunt or a neighbor, experience is everything. I never knew that you could use Dawn dish soap on laundry.

Internet! One of the best options is the Laundry Evangelist. His biggest message is to enjoy clothes without fear of stains. Which, for some of us, is the reason we don’t pull out our favorite clothes.

Manufacturer. Companies like Pendleton have concrete guidelines on how to care for the heirloom pieces they sell. Clothing labels are another obvious choice.

REI… Yes, this company is so interested in sustainability, because let’s face it, without nature, outdoor activities would be appealing. I found out that Woolite is a good option for maintaining the waterproofing of a soiled coat, unless you're willing to invest in the NIKWAX system.

Jumping in with intention can be a fun journey!
