The stats: the average American parents use 400-500 wipes per month, per child, on diaper changes, hands, faces, car messes and food spills.

In 2 years, that’s around:

• 11,000 disposable wipes
• 700-1500 gallons of water used to manufacture wipes & packaging (Pampers Polypropelene blend vs Corterie plant-based)
• 1500 gallons of water inside those wipes (wipes are 95% water)
• Conventional wipe breakdown time: never (breaks up into microplastics). Crunchy plant-based wipe breakdown time: 12 weeks in ideal composting conditions, ie dedicated compost bin for soiled wipes with heat, air & rotation. Soiled wipes are otherwise not home or commercially compostable. Landfill time unverified.

vs.

• 100 reusable wipes
• 100-200 gallons to produce 2 yards of undyed organic cotton fabric, spread out over 3-5 years of use. 0 gallons of water used if you repurpose cut-up old t shirts, flour sacks, etc.
• 1000 gallons of water to wash reusable wipes estimated 10% of laundry load
• 25 gallons of water to dampen before use
• Home compostable after 3-5 years of use

And since time is money, we’ll call it even. It’s just as easy to throw the wipes in the existing load of laundry as it is to throw them in the cart online or at the market.

Is $1500, 70 lbs of landfill waste & 2000 gallons of water worth the convenience of disposables? Seemingly so, since 118 billion baby wipes are sold annually. The bigger picture is what single-use consumerism does to our psychology. We’re losing the neural pathways of slow satisfaction, chasing empty feedback loops for instant gratification, reducing attention spans. We’re losing the plot. And we’re inadvertently teaching our children the same. Their prefrontal cortex is not predetermined, but developed from experience. The ability to resist convenience and delay gratification neurologically enhances emotional regulation, coping mechanisms, reasoning and self control. Choosing reusables teaches them to create, not consume. That convenience isn’t the goal of life. That we’re a critical part of the ecosystem, not above it.

Choose to reuse.

Things I can control: what we consume & what we create.
Things I can’t control: everything else.

My favorite days are a mix of soft & hard skills. Baking & business development. Gardening & grant writing. Dancing & contract drafting. Sewing & swimming. Motherhood sets the pace, encouraging microdoses of activities over benders. I “do it all” by waking up with the roosters and designing a life I’m motivated by. If I’m feeling depressed, I move wheelbarrows of mulch to get out of my head. If I need rest, I ask for help. It’s not always easy out here, what with the weather and the bugs and the bootstrapping, but to have the opportunity to create beauty, to create something from nothing, to see it through, is enough. And to do it with my family and friends is everything.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the badass mamas, especially our very own.

FAQs:

“How long did it take?”
About 28 hours total, bed & bedding

“Does it need ventilation underneath?”
No, only because the bed platform is lime plaster which is mold-proof and breathable. Otherwise, yes absolutely, or your mattress will mold.

“How to clean it?”
The mattress protector will keep it from ever getting wet, stained or soiled. Otherwise, spot clean & dry like any mattress.

“Why wool?”
It’s the healthiest. Repels liquids, antibacterial, odor & stain resistant, temperature regulating, natural, renewable, biodegradable…

“Why Havelock?”
I don’t have sheep at the moment. You can absolutely shear & scour your own wool (see my first homemade mattress video) or source from a local rancher. I used “blow in.” They treat it with 1% boric acid, comparable to borax which I launder with regularly.

“Where do you get your fabrics?”
I used to own a sustainable fashion brand in NYC, so I have wholesale contacts which I cultivated over a decade. Most of my fabrics aren’t available retail, but I will be selling them by the yard in my online Homestead Store as soon as I have the space to store inventory! I also offer consultations, which includes access to my contacts, at any scale. Email.

Organic mattress ticking, 55% organic cotton 45% organic hemp: coming soon to store
100% organic undyed cotton sateen:
100% wool army blankets: sourced from surplus store

Special thanks to:
🙏 Cat, Simon & Pete for taking care of the baby so I could embark on my first sewing bender since he was born
🙏 & for releasing new albums to binge while I worked
🙏 for making wool so widely available
🙏 for the most inspiring earthen bed nook Pinterest has never seen, and for the family to put in it
🙏 My mama for putting me in sewing lessons when I was 7

Exactly 1 year ago we started the Cob Casita as part of our spring workshop curriculum. Here we are today. Is it finished? No. Are we moved in? Hell yes. And yes, it’s beyond incredible. After more than a decade of building cob houses for clients, is sleeping in his very own for the first time, on my giant custom homemade mattress.
