Spring Clean

Homemade cleaners can save you money and are better for your family and the environment. Participants will discover how common pantry items can be used to create greener alternatives to household cleaning supplies. This workshop will include the opportunity to create and test out a tub/tile cleaner, wood polish, glass cleaner, stain remover among others.
