If you’ve visited with us before then you know our family has been working to live a cleaner, greener life. This means we are pretty picky about the foods and products we put in, and on, our bodies. More recently, we’ve added our home to the effort.
The products we use to clean our house, laundry and dishes impact our health, the air we breath and the environment. Because of this, we make a lot of our own cleaning supplies. You can read more about that here. When we do purchase products, Seventh Generation is always our brand of choice.
Recently, they asked me to share my thoughts on their dish soap as part of the Seventh Generation CleanHouse Challenge. I happily accepted the opportunity. I love the powerful, plant-based clean we get from Seventh Generation dish soap, and I trust it to help keep my kitchen clean and green. Because their dish soap is made of 95% plant based ingredients it’s not just good for my family, it’s also good for the environment.
Did you know that if every household in America replaced just one 25oz. bottle of conventional dish soap with one 25oz.bottle of Seventh Generation dish soap, we could save 125,000 barrels of oil? That’s enough to heat 7,200 homes for an entire year. That’s a pretty powerful difference we can make with a really simple switch.
To encourage you to give it a try I’ve got an awesome giveaway to announce.
Seventh Generation has generously agreed to give one of you 5 bottles of their plant-based dish soap. That’s about a year’s supply of dish soap in our house, and I’m cooking and cleaning up after 3 meals a day for a family of 4.
