Eco-Living

How do we practice authentic eco-living?

Environmental experts say that it will take humanity 100 years to heal the damage we’ve done to the earth. What can we all do to become more eco-friendly? What does it mean to practice eco-living?

The key to being eco-friendly is for everyone to live more as a whole, to inflict minimal or no harm on the environment. As we become more conscious as a society, we realize it’s time to restore damaged ecosystems, forests, soils, waters, and the air. Earth restoration is the first step towards creating a healthier planet.

By implementing local and organic farming, green building, and renewable resource usage, we become more sustainable. Examples of eco-living are: local and organic farming, composting, building green, reducing consumption, reusing or completely stop using non-renewable materials, recycling, and promoting the use of renewable resources and renewable energy.

Bamboo Living strives to be a leader among eco-conscious companies. We build our green homes with the most renewable resource on the planet, consciously reduce construction waste, always recycle, and support the development of sustainable eco-living. When you buy a bamboo home from us, you are taking part in the green revolution.

How To Grow Garlic

Garlic is easy to grow and produces numerous bulbs after a long growing season. Plus, it’s frost tolerant! Here’s how to grow garlic in your garden. PLANTING Garlic can be planted in the spring as soon as the ground can be worked, but fall planting is recommended for most gardeners. Plant in the fall and you’ll find that your bulbs are bigger and more flavorful when you harvest the next summer. In areas that get a hard frost, plant garlic as early as 6 to 8 weeks before the first expected fall frost date, before the ground freezes. The timing may vary with local climate; the aim is to give a long enough period before the ground freezes for the plant to develop good roots, but not enough time to for it to form top growth before freezing temperatures set in. In southern areas, February or March is a better time to plant. Break apart cloves from bulb a few days before planting, but keep the papery husk on each individual clove. Do not plant cloves fro...

Easy Animals to Raise on the Small Farm

If you are curious about where to start with raising animals on your small farm, hobby farm or homestead, here are a few suggestions, complete with information to help you decide which ones are the right fit for you.

How to Make a Terrarium

As the mom of a currently bug-obsessed four-year-old boy, I’ve been finding fun ways to use his obsession as a learning tool and encourage his love of dirt, bugs, and the outdoors in a way that keeps me from also having to dig for bugs all the livelong day. One day he came home from the park with four snails (a snail family, as he called it). He was really attached; I didn’t have the heart to make him put them back in the dirt right away. But I also wanted to make sure the snails were treated well and didn’t get the run of my house. So I came up with a fun and easy little snail terrarium DIY. Charlie thought it was the best thing ever, and it turned out pretty cute if I do say so myself. It sits on our lowest built-in bookshelf so he can sit on the floor and watch the snails and help feed them when necessary. This is a great project for summer fun with your kiddos and is a way to help teach them about the earth, life cycles, bugs, and mollusks. a fishbowl with a rim  chees...
