Natural products, waste-free

40


40 per hour - Virtual OK - Posted Aug 04, 2016

Do you care about eating food and using products that are chemical-free and waste-free? Do you hate the idea of contributing to landfill waste or environmental degradation? I make products with waste and foraged materials. Some examples are: firestarters made with dryer lint, mouthwash made with foraged herbs, eggs from foraging hens, fruit preserves packaged in re-used peanut butter jars. Maybe you need something I make already, or maybe your need for a product will spur me to learn how to make it.

Training & Qualifications


I hate plastic, unnecessary packaging, waste, and the idea of harmful chemicals entering our bodies or our environment. I strive to find ways to produce all the products I love to use without the stuff I don't. Because I use my own products, I make sure they are quality products. And I'm always working on improving them.

Trading Preference: I’m flexible, just hit me up!

About Tomi Henry

I'm a beginning homesteader. I moved to an acreage near Santa Rosa two years ago and since then I've been steadily working toward living a simpler, more natural lifestyle. I produce some of my own foo...d and cook many things from scratch that most people buy processed. I am slowly working on my skill building. Some of my hard-won skills include: poultry and goat management, dog and cat training, forest and orchard management, making and using alternatives to chemical and processed foods/products, fire building (I make firestarters out of surplus materials), cooking and baking. In addition to these down-home skills (as I like to call them), I have a degree in Middle Eastern Studies from UC Berkeley and several years of experience in the professional world doing research, writing and consultation on that subject. I wrote my thesis on media in the middle east, specifically: bias and censorship in Israel-Palestine. show more
