I am happy to be working to bring forth fruit from the rocky soil. I write about my life as the single mother of two children. I write about the food I cook, the plants we grow, the eggs our chickens lay, my ongoing efforts to avoid bringing new plastic into our home, and the things I think about at night when my home is finally quiet and still.
My obsession with plastic has taken over more of my life and has become Trash Backwards, online hub of the reuse revolution. Visit our site or check out our Pinterest boards to find inspiration to refuse, reduce, and reuse the things you think you’re done with.

I’m a reporter for the Bainbridge Island Review and I’m hoping to get in touch with Bainbridge Islanders who are trying the No Impact challenge for an article I’m writing for next week’s paper.
Would you be interested in talking with me?
