This is my other feed! More so for fun things around the farm, more involvement with the kids and reels. I hope you enjoy the extra information!

Let's face it, momming is hard enough without worrying about synthetic chemicals and toxins in all house hold cleaners.

I make many of our own cleaners, including Laundry Soap and Dishwasher Detergent! Not only is it simple (honestly, it is not hard or overwhelming), but it is also much cheaper. $34 worth of ingredients makes us $135 worth of laundry and dishwasher detergent! Today, I will share my recipe for Dishwasher Detergent!

- 1 cup of Borax (I use Simply Clean Pure Borax, $16.99)
- 1 cup of Washing Soda (I make my own from Baking Soda! Yes, I use the Arm and Hammer for cleaning products and Bob's Mill for eating. I will share another post on how I turn Baking Soda into Washing Soda! $4.69 for the big box at Costco)
- 1/2 cup salt ($0.50- ish of any cheap fine salt)
- 1/2 cup citric acid ($11.99 at Peavey Mart)
-10-15 drops of citrus essential oils (this is optional, but I use Orange Oil)

Mix gently in a jar, I put the lid on and gently roll it around. Do not breath in Washing Soda dust, as it isn't good for your lungs.

1 Tablespoon per Load!
