NEW Local Roots Market in Ashland!

Hey folks, join From Scratch ~ Old World baked Goods this Saturday at the NEW Local Roots Market Ashland from 9am-Noon! Many local vendors will be there with seasonal produce, baked goods, local crafters & more! Stop by and see us! We'll have many stone baked artisan breads available for sale and maybe even some of our old fashioned fudge. 

For every $100 spent at a locally owned business, $45 goes back into our community-and our tax base. For every $100 spent at a chain store, only $14 comes back! Local businesses are owned by people who live here, work here and are more invested in our future. Be the solution, support local!

Environmentally Safe & Chemical FREE Laundry Alternatives

1. Throw away any and all commercial Fabric Softeners, you don't need them! A cotton or muslin bag filled with Lavender Flowers works even better. Toss bag in the dryer with each load. Use 1/2 cup to 1 cup of Lavender Flowers per bag full, and that's all you need for a reusable & natural alternative. Each cotton/muslin baggy will usually last 20 to 30 loads or more. The savings & other benefits are substantial.
2. Vinegar is a necessity in all laundry rooms! Use common distilled vinegar in your washer as a bleach alternative & color booster. Vinegar also works well as a pretreatment on tough stains. Use approx. 2 Tbsp in every load to ensure added softness and guarantee the antibacterial properties. For heavily soiled items and/or loads add 1/2 cup to your wash.
3. Make your own linen spray. You two can have a custom or aromatherapy spray for your linens and clothing. Take a few drops of your favorite pure essential oil(s) and add them to a spray bottle full of distilled water. Shake bottle well before each use.  **Never used fragranced oils, only pure essential oils!)
4. Next time you wash your delicates, skip the dryer. hang all your goddess wear out or up to dry some place warm or where there is dry air flow. You'll be amazed at the savings on your electric bill!
