Comment on Safe enough to wash your cat: Starter Kit by Junie Rose

These two products are the best! I was looking forward to getting more at the Lavender Festival this year, but didn’t get there — if there was a festival this year. Making everyone self sufficient in this regard by sharing the recipe is wonderful. The lavender scent really makes cleaning enjoyable — well, as good as it’s going to get anyway. How much lavender oil do you add to the household cleaner? Would the addition of lavender oil ruin the window cleaner? Probably so, but it doesn’t hurt to ask. Are these products sold somewhere on the island? Starter kits would be great green gifts. Many thanks. You’re providing a wonderful service.

Not to my knowledge, Beth, although I’m sure there are people who’ve taken it upon themselves to innovate. Good question. Anyone?

My question is, do you have any experimental zones, that is, areas where a person can build without restrictions by building codes, most of which are old-paradigm?

I stopped by the hut on Saturday to discuss LED lighting with your organization but there was not anyone there. We have some really exciting LED products to share with Vashon. Our office is located here on the island and we would like you to join us in our efforts to replace all the Florescent bulbs in the US. Please contact me at my Email or through thte website.
