A set of our new naked soap goes to Serafinamia - just one of the fantastic comments we got on our Earth Day blog post.  Wayne will not stop repeating the slogan.   Serafinamia, please email belleterrenc[at]gmail[dot]com with your address and we'll send your soap along. Thanks to everyone who participated - you guys are amazing!  Check back in May for our next giveaway. _____________________ Serafinamia
Hi – we compost every veggie bit, buy organic to reduce pesticide use and eat vegetarian to reduce the environmental cost of producing meat (among a host of other reasons). We recycle everything – sometimes even the neighbors’ cardboard or cast-off TVs. We also don’t poison our own yard, because ‘native grasses’ (aka, weeds!) are neat when mowed to uniform size! The old WWII slogan, ‘Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without,’ just might be useful again.
