I planted some cosmos, but I really want to plant milkweed. I just didn't have time to get to a seed store in town that carries them.

Rachel Orrison 4/30/2024 1:10 PMI'm not going to make planting a tree in time for the challenge, but tomorrow (May 1) we are going to Arbor Day Farm with my kids school, and I think we'll bring a tree home! -
Malia Rains 4/30/2024 5:58 AMIt is going great! The Green Team hosted a potting event instructed by the Latino Center of the Midlands gardening program lead. It was very informative and a super fun and interactive event. Thanks to all on the Green Team that helped put this together :) -
Rachel Orrison 4/26/2024 2:27 PMAt lunch I was about to reach for a disposable item and then thought, no, let me go get a reusable one instead! It wasn't any harder, I just had to think before I grabbed. I appreciate that this month helps prompt me to be more aware! -
Rachel Orrison 4/24/2024 10:18 AMI joined a call today about Deloitte's sustainability and client conversations. It was interesting to hear about the things Deloitte is doing, and what others are doing. We attempted composting a while ago but didn't stick with it; thinking about exploring it again (not that we will be like DU!). -
Rachel Orrison 4/23/2024 12:39 PMWe were very busy this weekend, but I'm excited to plant some seeds with my kids this week for some flower for the pollinators!

Malia Rains 4/22/2024 6:42 AMHAPPY EARTH DAY DOMAHA!!!
Thanks for all of those participating in the Ecochallenge and in other areas of your daily routine. Every bit helps and I am glad to have a great community that is willing to learn and participate in more sustainable practices :) -
Rachel Orrison 4/19/2024 2:29 PMLast year I had 5 minute showers as one of my daily goals, and while it wasn't an option this year I have been trying to keep it in mind! Easier some mornings than others to move quickly!-
Adeze Chukwu 4/19/2024 2:35 PMYou are so right! spending only 5 minutes in the shower doesn't just save water, it also saves your time.

Rachel Orrison 4/18/2024 12:22 PMMy parents live just over a mile away, so instead of driving over to see them I walked. I appreciate that I can work from home and so get to cut down on my driving in general.-
Malia Rains 4/22/2024 6:38 AMI love this! I live super close to Askarben and a grocery store so i've been walking to those places as much as i can instead of driving!

Rachel Orrison 4/16/2024 12:11 PMHit two vegan meals today! But my meal plan for dinner includes garlic bread so won't make it there (although I suppose you could if planned correctly!). Meal planning helps take stress out of my evenings - I appreciate at the end of the day not having to make a decision about what to cook.
