I finally managed to buy a small own house with a garden & I am trying to both save money, be as sustainable as I can and make the best use of the space I have.
So far I:
- started a vegetable and fruits garden to grow my own food
- started an herb garden
- collect rain water to use in the garden
- furnished the house with second furniture I up-cycled and my own art & craft
- joined my local 'freegle' group to keep an eye on free stuff that is offered
- am saving to buy a bike so I don't have to rely on public transport as much
- dry clothing outside as much as possible too
- thinking of selling stuff I don't need (clothes) on Facebook Marketplace.
Are there any other tricks I am missing that you could suggest?
I don't have the money to do big things like install solar panels but I am looking for ideas that I might have overlooked :)
