I live in a rural area and have been an organic gardener for many years. I've also been using common household ingredients like vinegar and lemon juice for cleaning.Ever since I read Rachel Carson's "Silent Spring" in the '60's, I've tried to use as few chemicals in my home and lifestyle as is possible. I really believe much of the cancers today are caused by chemicals in our homes.You can't do much about chemicals used in the construction process or furniture manufacturing, or those used in the clothing industry, but why add to them by piling on more chemicals by using cleaning and garden products that are totally unnecessary?This book is loaded with cleaning and gardening hints for both indoor and outdoor use. Even though I've been a green person for years, I found new information that I am going to put into use immediately.If you are concerned about your health and the health of your children, this is a book you should download and read from cover to cover. Recommended.
