In 2016, I was running a link party called Sustainable Sundays and each week, all of these wonderful Sustainable Living Bloggers would link up amazing content. I decided to stop doing the link party after about 25 weeks, but I wanted to keep the fabulous content… in a slightly more organized manner.
I decided to organize the featured content into several roundup posts, each around a particular topic. Today’s topic is Gardening and Compost.
Most of these bloggers have their own gardens, but they also harvest weeds such as dandelions for salve, food, and more. I think it’s fair to say we all love our compost bins and we enjoy the fruits of our labor each summer with beautiful, edible gardens. Here are some of my favorite posts about gardening and composting.
