Bea prepares the family meals using only ingredients purchased sans packaging. So when she is done, there is nothing to be sent to the landfill or to be recycled.

Bea hasn't used a paper towel in over a decade. She wipes her counters clean with a washcloth. Housecleaning products are kept to a minimum and consist of only a natural liquid soap and white vinegar.
