Use dishwater for watering plants
As we try to go greener, we’re finding new ways to re-use and repurpose items around the house. A recent addition to our eco-friendly repetoire is saving our dish water. No, really. We keep a large, clean bucket in the sink and use it when we hand wash dishes. Then, when we’re done, we take the water outside and use it to water the garden. (It’s also a good time to take out the ever-filling compost container we keep on the counter as well - two trips in one!)
Be sure to use a biodegradable dish soap, such as Seventh Generation or Method.
