Green Cleaning Workshop

We've heard your pleas to bring this workshop back again...this time Leslie Reichert, the Cleaning Coach, is our guide.  She's on a mission to teach and encourage others in the "art" of green homekeeping.Leslie Reichert

Our homes should be the one place we feel safe from toxins and hazardous chemicals.  Currently, one out of every ten children suffers from asthma.  A good majority of these cases can be linked to chemicals and toxins in the home.  With simple changes the symptoms can be relieved.

You'll leave with an all-purpose cleaner, a liquid scrib and a tip sheet with recipes for making your own cleaners.  Yes, you'll be able to go right home and get started.  Whew!  Just in time for Spring Cleaning!

Her new book, The Joy of Green Cleaning will be available for purchase for 20% off after the workshop for workshop participants and she'll be available to sign your copy of the book.

February 27, 11:00 am - 12:30 pm, $15 per family


Registration in advance is STRONGLY recommended so Leslie can bring enough materials for every family to make their own cleaners.
