TELL ME MORE! 

Aight, 

WHAT IS ON THE MENU?

Six workshops over six months. We are not going to rush through all of this. Shortcuts don’t exist.

So what can you expect in the workshops?

1. First steps towards the essentials: Learn how to declutter.

That’s right! You will first and foremost learn how to declutter once and for all. We will go through every step to make sure that you start with what you NEED, not what you HAVE/ WANT.

2. You are what you eat: How to shop (almost) waste free & reconnect with your food producer

It’s not easy, but it is possible to shop without making any waste. Know that we know you a little better and what your lifestyle is, we will go through your very own grocery lists and find the solutions in town for you.

We notice that people get very serious about food, and we feel ya! 

That’s why you might even be able to meet the future producers of yourf ood at our workshops!

3.        A healthy body starts by knowing what you put on it: Natural body & face care

Nothing is more you than your skin. Unfortunately, not only are most of the products we use in our bathroom wrapped in some sort of unrecyclable material, but they also contain harmful chemicals, parabens, additives, and other endocrinal disrupters, … (the list is loooooong).

We help you discover multiple brands and ways to simplify and detoxify your hygiene routine!

4. CLEAN HOME CLEAN BODY: Natural cleaning at home

Ah! We hear ya coming. Should I bring my ayi? No need. If you don’t know/ understand what your housekeeper uses or how to use it, then she might as well keep using what she’s been using all along.

Don’t worry though, we will send some Chinese cheat sheets with you guys home.

5. ECO HOME MAKE OVER: Implementing systems at home to save water, energy, waste and more.

This may be one of the most crucial workshops of the 6 months. This is where everything you have been learning almost comes together. You implemented some things here and there, but you also need to think of the joints that bring this lifestyle together as a whole.

And that’s what we will be learning here.

6. WORK HARD PLAY HARD: Throwing a waste free party

Time to have some fun! In this last workshop we will have an actual dinner party, without A N Y waste. We will have decorations, some presents, some food and some wine …

(this is our favourite one!)
