I have never worked, went straight from education to motherhood so I can literally start from scratch. But I don't know what to do!
I enjoy growing plants (flowers, fruit and veg) but short of owning acres of land i can't really grow enough to sell as a job. Maybe but I don't know.
I also like making little bits and bobs for the kids, like little knotted toys with wool from the charity shop or little sewn up bits, fabric from stained clothes or ripped clothes.
I feel like this is my passion and I want to revolve my life around making a difference.
It is purely selfish as ever since my first child was born I feel like my eyes just opened to how wasteful I am, the world is and how worrying that is for my babies little futures.
bleak.
Low salary is fine, working for free is fine, I just need to do something but I don't know what?
Does anyone have any ideas on what I could do?
Going back to college or uni is certainly do-able.

I feel like the easiest way is to grow and sell, or make and sell reusable items but thats a drop in the ocean kind of deal. I feel like I can do more! I owe it to my children.
