maintaining + repairing our things!
Join me in the meadow today for a talk on turning back to taking care and repairing what we already have instead of feeding into the wheel of consumerism. Don't get me wrong, there is no winning under capitalism, we can only do what we can do! By taking steps to maintain what we have, we can avoid the growing cycle of throwing out/replacing our 'stuff'. These are some of the things I do in my home to ensure my books, clothes, and 'things' will last as long as they possibly can!
