Dec 3, 2024, 11 AM

During the workshop, you will have the opportunity to make your lemon multi-purpose surface cleaner. Materials will be provided.

Ages: This is a family friendly event, children should be accompanied by an adult.

In this workshop, we will talk about the ins and outs of household cleaners, including how to read and understand labels, proper storage and disposal, and recipes for different non-toxic alternatives. We will also talk about the magic (or science) of bio-enzyme cleaners and how they work.

The average U.S. household produces more than 20 pounds of household hazardous waste every year, which breaks down to about 4 pounds per person (US EPA). This includes a slew of materials such as paint, solvents, vehicle fluids, pesticides, herbicides, and household cleaners. While some toxics are unavoidable and require special disposal through household hazardous waste collection events, others can be avoided entirely and replaced with simple, yet effective non-toxic alternatives.
