Earth Day Contest – Win a Kids Konserve Lunch Kit
If you have been to my blog before, it is pretty obvious that I care a lot about helping families to eat healthy foods and protect our planet. For that reason, I simply detest garbage – especially unnecessary garbage that comes from packaged foods. Don’t get me wrong – I don’t buy everything from the bulk bins at the natural foods store (and then dump them into reusable bags or pillow cases…). But I DO pay attention to what I buy and how much trash it will generate. Keeping trash out of our waste stream is one reason that I love to use reusable containers for my kids’ lunches and for our leftover meals. Kids Konserve is a local company that addresses some of my concerns, and has created some products that help keep our kids and our planet safe. Learn how you can enter the contest below – you might win one of these cool reusable lunch kits!

How did I miss this post? I love your content & site but somehow did. Anyways…
We use Sigg & Nalgene bottles exclusively whenever we’re out & about. We even bring them on vacation. It makes us really sad to think of all the empty water bottles filling up our open land because we know not everyone recycles.
So, pre-cycle & get a great reusable bottle! Preferably not one made in China.
We end up with just over one bag of trash a week & it’s mostly tissue paper (it’s been a bad cold & allergy season here) and food scraps. I have to admit the handkerchief concept seems gross to me, but we’re trying to incorporating a compost bin into our small yard.
Great post idea! And I love the lunch kit…hope I win one!

Hi Gina – you are doing great!!!
If you start to compost (or get chickens!) you will have even less food waste – then you could probably get a smaller trash can through your waste management company. You could do a worm bin if you don’t have enough space for a big compost pile…
It would be great if you win – let me know!
