Composting at Home: A Guide to Urban and Suburban Soil Health

In a world where waste is piling up and healthy soil is becoming scarce, composting has emerged as a simple yet powerful solution. Whether you live in a busy city apartment or a quiet suburban neighborhood, composting at home can transform the way you handle kitchen scraps and yard waste. More than just a method of disposing of organic waste, composting is a natural process that enriches the soil, reduces landfill pressure, and helps create sustainable communities.

I don’t care what anyone tells you femininity is for YOU! It’s not just defined by how you wear your hair, how softly you speak, or that you know how to put an outfit together like a stylist. Femininity is knowing how to create a safe space for yourself. All of these things are for YOU! They may benefit men, but remember doing them for yourself is what matters most.

Small moments

A reminder that every slight shift you make in your day to day, whether it’s repurposing takeout containers to making your own plant-based milk, makes a difference. It’s easy to feel discouraged in these moments, to get sucked into a social media vortex and loose sight of the small accomplishments you’re making. So here’s the reminder to put your phone down and appreciate how your mindful moments add up.

Reducing our environmental impact means reducing our personal footprint. The overwhelm of trying to go entirely #zerowaste can be anxiety inducing and lead to paralysis. Take it one step at a time, try one new habit and build consistency with it before you take on anything else. You don’t need expensive containers or products to live a low impact lifestyle. You can meet yourself where you are, with kindness and patience.

Let’s commit to starting one new sustainable habit this week. Monumental change is compounding y’all. What we do today will build the foundation for years to come. One small moment at a time. So, what is the best way you can make a difference in your own home, starting today? (Hint: maybe it’s saving all your lemon peels to candy them...?)

Let’s share ideas for small moments! #closedloopcooking

Hey friends! In honor of hitting 20k followers, I wanted to do a proper intro for all the new folks around here 🤗 I’m Sabs, I’m 25, live in Brooklyn and have been living a #lowimpact and #vegan lifestyle for over four and a half years now. I’m a big fan of plants, #farmersmarkets, music, food, aimlessly wandering the city, and spending time with loved ones. Fun tidbits about me: I grew up in Texas, speak fluent French, secretly hate papaya and not-so-secretly love boob art 😁 curious about anything else? Leave your questions in the comments and I’ll answer them in my stories today. Thanks again for being here and hope I can inspire you in some way on your sustainability journey 🤗 [image description: Sabs poses next to her hanging pothos in front of a white wall.] • • • #zerowaste #lowimpactmovement #wastefree #trashfree #plasticfree #nowaste #notrash #noplastic #reduce #reuse #recycle #repurpose #ecofriendly #sustainable #gogreen #yayforearth #reducewhatyouproduce #ourplanetourhome #zerowastecollective #minimalist #lowwaste #lesswaste #vegan #vegansofig #plantbased #plants #plantsofinstagram #intro (at Brooklyn, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_2QQrbpomK/?igshid=xqa2ag8qodcq

Last Sunday I found a (bumble)bee on the ground outside. It barely moved and I felt so bad that I took it with me and gave it a bit of natural lemonade (no weird additions). It didn't seem to get better, so I made it a bed in the box of my tarot cards, put a drop of lemonade in it and kept it there, next to a cup of warm water which radiated the warmth.

It started moving more, but when I put it outside, it fell still again so I took it inside and decided to take care of it until it had gotten better.

Unfortunately, the bee was too weak to survive, I feel bad but I did all I could and hopefully gave it a good last few hours of its life.

We need to do more to save the bees, because they will save us as well
