For several years now, my New Year’s resolutions have centered on implementing a new plan (big or small) to reduce waste in our household. For example, 5 years ago, I decided to start shopping the majority of our dry food from bulk bins. Every year it’s a new challenge. This year, I decided to continue to lighten my laundry footprint by trying out soap nuts.
Soap nuts aren’t actually nuts at all. They’re berries. They grow on the Sapindus mukorossi tree, which is native to sub-tropical regions of Asia but also grows well in warmer regions like South America.
