Tired of chemicals going down the loo? Me too — so I made toilet bombs! They’re cheap, easy and actually fun to make.
Recipe: 1 cup bicarbonate soda • ¼ cup citric acid • 30–40 drops of your favourite essential oil.
Method: Mix the dry ingredients, then spray 1–2 short bursts of water at a time (don’t over-wet — you don’t want fizz!). Keep mixing and misting until the mix just starts to clump. Press into silicone moulds and leave to dry for 24 hours in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Pop them out, store in a glass jar. Use one per clean — drop in the bowl, let it fizz, then wipe or brush as usual. No harsh chemicals heading to our oceans. 🌍💚
Tag me if you try them — I love seeing your DIYs!

Why eat boring zucchini when you can turn it into pasta AND pesto? 🤩
Honestly… making this is a piece of cake!
Recipe (2 servings | 35 min prep)
Zucchini Pasta:
• 750g zucchini (one big one)
• Chop and fry in a little olive oil until softened
• Add half to a food processor
• Add 250g flour (start with 200g and add as needed)
• Pinch of salt
• Blend until it forms a dough and set aside
Zucchini Pesto:
• Remaining cooked zucchini
• A handful of nuts
• Basil
• Salt & pepper
• A glug of olive oil
• Blend until smooth
Bring a pot of water to the boil.
Cut the dough into the pot using scissors.
When the pasta floats to the top, it’s done!
Toss with the pesto and serve. 💚

Turns household food waste into odorless pre-compost in as little as 5 hours.
Our Google Rating !
Loved the products and quality. The service was swift and excellent. I was kept updated on the order and where there was limited stock, I was advised of a suitable replacement. Will definitely recommend.
We have recently dramatically downsized, and I was mourning the loss of our composting capability. Enter the microgarden composter - great product, great service. Once I’ve eliminated that annoying voice, it will get 5 stars!
I have been a customer of Microgarden products for over two years now. I love their eco-friendly and sustainable range. Our family makes every effort to recycle and achieve zero waste, Microgarden assists our mission! Recently I purchased two stainless steel food flasks. Both my sons use them for hot school meals and I am happy to report that the stew was still hot after 7 hours. I highly recommend Microgarden. Thanks for your excellent service!
What a company. First I buy an amazing product, the MicroGarden Compostet, and then when I had an issue, went above and beyond to solve it!
I contact the team about the composter not processing and got an answer in 30 min, and the very next day the machine was in the courier van to be serviced. It was back 4 days later, brand new, and amazing.
Buy anthing and everything from these people, they are brilliant.

Incredible products and above all, incredible after sales support from the company!
We bought the hydronic garden, and it's a fantastic product! Also the service we received was professional, and fast!
Thank you for my Composter. I absolutely love it. I was so impressed I brought another one for our place in Hoedspruit. In about 5 hours it turns our food waste, that would have rotted, into dry pre compost that I just through on the garden. It is so convenient and doesn't cause any problems with flies, rats or baboons. It works way better than I ever expected.
i really love my small hydroponic garden. have grown all sorts of things successfully including 6 erythrina lysistemon which are now in large pots. Customer service is definitely 5 star. I thought my light bulb had blown and reached out to Kerry who immediatly couriered me a replacement. In fact it was the adaptor but all sorted now. one very happy customer. would definitely recommend
Just love the choice of wonderful 'feel good' products. I have been delighted over the years with everything either purchased or received as a gift. I would highly recommend Microgarden.
What a great brand to be associated with. They have amazing goals and are looking to make the world a better place through sustainable home products. I would highly recommend any family to invest in these products.
I can highly recommend Microgarden's products - they are top quality! I have never been disappointed by anything purchased from Microgarden. Everything is practical, sustainable and aesthetic.This brand really makes eco-friendly living easy!
