Event Overview

In the spirit of fresh starts, we’re issuing a challenge to all our Dabblers: ditch the Clorox and Ajax and save your wallet and Mother Nature some serious damage by learning to make simple green cleaning products at home!

In this hands-on workshop, Dabblers will make their own natural (and effective) green cleaning kits. Students will then have an opportunity to test their green recipes against commercial products and will learn how and why eco-friendly cleaning is better for your health, the environment and your wallet. Be prepared to walk away with the knowledge, resources and inspiration you need to make the switch to green cleaning once and for all.

    The teacher was so bubbly and did a great job with balancing the class. Part of the class was informational but not overwhelming and the other part was interactive. The class was well planned and well executed.

    This class exceeded my expectations. The teacher explained the science behind conventional cleaners as well as green cleaners, covering more than the four basic cleaners we concocted. Very organized, informative, and useful.

    Great class! Learned a lot and made enough supplies to keep me cleaning for a while. This would be a fun class to do with a group - very informal, very hands-on.
