Hello my lovelies and welcome to my little hive here at thesustainablebee.com !
Just a little about me and the bees….
So, I absolutely love bees along with nature. From an early age I have always been interested and fascinated about nature and regularly take photos whilst out and about and watching documentaries. Bees are my favourite insect and are becoming endangered, so that is why I have chosen to name my site after them.
Just like bees in a hive I have worked very hard to create this website. They are undeniably hard workers and amazing at what they do. I think of my website like a hive, it has so many structures to it and it has to be attended to maintain it’s strength. That is where you guys come in…..
Helping you to help the planet.
The aim and focus of my site is not to try and convert you to being a vegan or going out to be a hippie, unless you want to! but to help and maybe get you, or people you may know, to make small simple changes that can have a huge impact on the planet.
Even if it might be from swapping your plastic straws to ones made from advocado seeds or simply changing your period products to ones that decompose naturally and not made of plastic.
As a single parent and everything going up in price I understand that it is difficult. You want to be able to do your bit but then again you’re also on a budget! I myself would love to do more, but I cannot afford it. Not constantly with every shop. So, I have made small changes to as and when I can.
This helps with my mental health, knowing I’m doing something good, but also not breaking the bank! I use sustainable period products – no nasties and the company donates whatever I purchase to a girl or women in need to help with period poverty, I use some cleaning products that are vegan friendly with no chemicals and I even go to my local fill-up shop where I take my old plastic containers, and you’ve guessed it, fill them up with shampoo and conditioner etc.
So these are just a few ways that I would like to help you guys out and to be a part of my colony in my little hive.
My goal, our planet.
My goal for this site is one of two things. To help you on your journey of helping the environment, a little at a time. That is it.
I would like to help you make small changes that can have a huge impact. Whether it be helping you to choose a luxurious moisturizer made from natural ingredients or trying to find clothing made from ethically sourced fabric. I’m sure, when we come together we’ll be able to help each other out.
I would like to thank you so much for checking in and having a browse and hopefully I might be able to help you.
Take care of yourselves, stay well and most importantly be happy to bee yourself!
all my love
Your Queen bee, Wendy x
