Back To The Good Life

This week we're discussing greener ways to clean. Did you know that DIY green cleaning products are made up of usually 3 main core products? Find out what they are, how to use them, and what else we're doing to minimise our impact on the planet when it comes to cleaning this spring! A big shoutout goes to Fill Co. this week, we absolutely love their products, love the glass bottles, love their ethos, and love how EASY they make being green and eco-friendly!

Spring is the perfect time to get outside and learn about foraging for wild edibles. It's fun, easy, and you can find wild foods to eat all year round! In this episode we discuss how we love looking for mushrooms, eating some of the things we've found, and even using wild plants for medicinal purposes. NOTE: THIS EPISODE IS NOT DESIGNED TO BE ADVICE, MERELY AN INTERESTING CONVERSATION. DO NOT EAT OR USE PLANTS MEDICINALLY IF YOU CAN NOT IDENTIFY THEM PROPERLY. - Visit our website: www.backtothegoodlife.com Get £10 off of your first Oddbox order: www.backtothegoodlife.com/oddbox Get £5 off your first Milk and More order: www.backtothegoodlife.com/MilkAndMore

We’re planning to do a few projects around our home this year, and they all have the planet in mind. We want to make sure we’re not adding too much carbon to the atmosphere, and that we’re not using up natural resources. Join us in episode 5 as we discuss a DIY potato planter, encouraging the bees into the garden, and a high-tech way to save money (and the planet) when it comes to our heating and energy usage! We’re giving a big shout-out this week to Niki’s old friend Simon from Brighton BeeNBee and we get really excited about appearing on the Gardening With Nikki Podcast! - Visit our website: www.backtothegoodlife.com Get £10 off of your first Oddbox order: www.backtothegoodlife.com/oddbox Get £5 off your first Milk and More order: www.backtothegoodlife.com/MilkAndMore Check out Fill on Instagram: www.instagram.com/fill_co

The world is changing and the way we live is changing with it. We are seeing more and more people choosing to be self-sufficient, self-reliant, and self-employed. In this episode, we’re going to talk about how we are trying our hand at self-sufficiency through growing our own food, looking at our renewable energy options, and staying as independent from big corporations as possible. This episode is about the importance of self-reliance, self-sufficiency, and the need to work towards a different type of future. How easy it is to live self-sufficiently throughout the year with a self-sufficient homestead? We’re hoping to find out! — Connect With Us: Our blog: www.backtothegoodlife.com Instagram: @back.tothegoodlife Get £10 off your first order with OddBox www.backtothegoodlife.com/oddbox Visit Brighton Bee N Bee and get a beautiful handmade house for your solitary bees from a local artisan: https://brightonbeenbee.co.uk/

We are Niki and Mr G, a couple from The West Country in England, and we're just starting out on an amazing journey to turn our lives from 'norma' and 'mundane' to exciting and challenging. We're planning to grow as much of our own food as we can, minimise our impact on our beautiful planet, and raise a family in a traditional and wholesome way. We haven't got much, we've got a postage stamp garden and full-time jobs, but we have got a lot of love and a big dream for our future. We'd love it if you joined us along the way!
