Tomorrows the day! We will be at the festival with an educational booth about reducing food waste. Come stop in and say hello! #chattaveganfest #chattavegan #zerowastevegan #chattanoogafood #chattanoogafun #chattanooga_fun #chattanoogaevents #chattanoogafamilyfun #chattanooga

Spent last weekend canning apple butter, with apples from my grandmother's tree! I used my great-great-grandmothers can filler. It was made before plastic was a common household item and will outlast any plastic can filler made today. I look forward to teaching my kids to can using it one day! Even if you aren't fortunate to have access to family heirloom kitchen tools, durable old kitchen wares can often be found at thrift stores. I have an old fashioned flour sifter found at a thrift store that belonged to someone's grandma once! #oldthingsarenew #builttolast #breakfreefromplastic #thanksgrandma #zerowastevermont

BYOM! Many Chattanooga coffee shops give you a discount when you bring your own mug. Getting into the habit of bringing your own mug prevents you from ever using a plastic lined take away coffee cup. This is one of my favorite mugs--it's called a marsupial mug because the pocket holds your tea bag. The design doesn't work great because the tea bag falls on your face 😊, but at Niedlovs the other day the barista put these flowers in the pouch for me 🙂. Here are a few places in Chatt who give you a discount for bringing your own mug, please comment below with the coffee shops I've missed! @niedlovs @sleepyheadchatt @meanmugcoffeehouse @starbucks #chattcoffee #chattanoogacoffee #sustainablechattanooga #zerowastechattanooga #chattanooga #chattanoogatn #zerowastecoffee

Today I met one of my personal heroes! @katharinehayhoe We happen to be in NYC visiting family the same time as the NYC Climate Week and were thrilled to attend her talk! She is a Christian climate scientist, I highly recommend binge watching all of her YouTube videos 🙂 Favorite idea in her talk: You can be just who you are to take action on climate change. You don’t have to be a liberal, an environmentalist, or a hippie. Whatever your background, you can take action to protect our beautiful earth 🌍. #katharinehayhoe #climateweeknyc #chattanoogaclimatestrike
