    Green Living with Connie - Ep 5 - Easy Veggies to Plant This Summer!

    Sorry for the late ep! Been snowed in with work. I'm actually currently studying full time at the moment so it's been a busy one with heaps of assessments. But I'm excited to bring you ep 5 and share with you guys some recommendations on easy veggies to plant this summer! Keep in mind though that I am based in Melbourne so this advice is more applicable to similar climate regions. You can most likely still grow most of these in tropical climates but your growing season will differ - I'm guessing you could probably grow our summer season crops in your winter! Anyway.. Thanks for listening! x Connie

    Green Living with Connie - Ep 4 - Single Use Plastic Swaps & Encouraging Others to Adopt them Too

    I’m excited to share with you 3 single-use plastic swaps anyone can do. And with every swap, I’m excited to also share brands to check out who make these products and tips on how to have these habits stick. As well as how to encourage others to make these swaps too, because I think that’s a really big topic to talk about too. SHOW NOTES:  I also want to make note that the conversation on reusables is encouraged for those who can make the swap. For example there are people in our disability community who require a plastic straw to drink and they should most definitely be able to continue to access these!

    Green Living with Connie - Ep 2 - Can I Recycle That?

    * Re-uploaded this episode as the previous version only played out of the left speaker/ear - my bad! * In this podcast I go through then common confusing items and figure out whether or not they're recyclable in household recycling bins! Things like coffee cups, baking paper (for all of us sourdough bakers out there!), pizza boxes and more.

    Green Living with Connie - Ep 1 - Composting

    In this podcast I chat about one of my favourite ways to start a zero-waste journey and that is through composting and reducing food waste at home. I go through the various options available and give tips on which method might work best for you and your household.  LINKS MENTIONED: To check if your council offers a rebate/discount: https://compostrevolution.com.au/ To connect with neighbours who are composting: https://sharewaste.com/  Thanks for listening! x Connie
