Pitch In To Cleanup Your Community
Make Your Own Green Cleaners
If you want to clean green, you can make your own natural products at home. For example: to make furniture polish, mix olive oil and vinegar in a one-to-one ratio and polish with a soft cloth. For more green cleaner recipes, click on www.HealthyChild.org.
