Spring Cleaning Workshop

Thursday, April 21, 2022 at 5 PM
Encinitas Library
Free

Are you cleaning out your closets this Spring? Learn how to do it with the planet in mind! Join I Love A Clean San Diego on Earth Day, Thursday April 21st, from 5-6 p.m. for our free Spring Cleaning workshop.

Come discover ways that natural cleaning products can reduce waste and save money. We’ll show you effective recipes for household cleaners, identify specific low-waste swaps, and review how to recycle right. You’ll also learn about resources for donating and recycling textiles, toys, and those other hard to dispose of items. Leave with the tools and ideas you need to live more sustainably and reduce what you’re sending to the landfill!

Attendees are invited to participate in our Make and Take activity. Create your own all-purpose cleaner from our bulk items to start your zero waste journey with one entirely waste free product!

In addition, attendees can bring in gently used items you were planning to donate and participate in the Swap ‘n’ Shop! Participants can exchange or donate those items, giving them a second life and keeping them out of the landfill. Some example items that have been brought to past workshops include clothes, nail polish, stereos, pet supplies, books, CDs, picture frames, kitchenware, Halloween costumes, etc.

Please register to reserve your space at the event. Thank you to the City of Encinitas for sponsoring this event. Can’t wait to see you there!
