Wordless Wednesday: Sustainable Blog Love


This week is sustainability week at Twinkle in the Eye. You can read more about it here, here and here.

In a not so Wordless Wednesday, I am going to share with you some of the blogs that teach and inspire me in my aspiration to live more sustainably.


Milkwood is the story of a small organic farm in the making. At Milkwood they are dedicated to cultivating skills and knowledge for a kick-arse small farm and urban permaculture systems.










At Little Eco Foot Prints they are learning to live better with less. Blog author Tricia, shares her dream of living close to nature, sharing space to grow food; having a little ecological footprint; and being part of a community.






A Fresh Legacy, sharing healthy recipes, home grown and home-made. Includes fabulous food photography.








Then there is Stacey from Veggie Mama who shows us how simple, versatile and delicious vegetables can be and she does it in gorgeous vintage style.


I encourage you to visit all of these wonderful blogs and embrace some of what they have to teach you about walking more lightly on the earth.

You can link up your Wordless Wednesday below:

Hi Bree, thanks so much for including me in your post. It is a practical and helpful series. We are progressively changing the way we shop and eat to be more sustainable. I am really enjoying the journey, particularly the discovery of making new things from scratch. Thanks for the intro to Milkwood, I like discovering new blogs-the others mentioned here I read often and they are each inspiring. Thanks again. Kyrstie

My pleasure. It is a rewarding process. I've just addded learning to sew on my list of skills to make me more sustainable, once I've mastered the art I am going to try my hand upcycling old clothing and materials.
