DIY Recipes for a Tox-Free, Zero-Waste Life
Home by Natural Harry is a compendium of DIY recipes, tips, tricks and hacks for a calm, resourceful and tox-free existence. It is a modern reference for anyone who wants to ditch their joyless supermarket habit, reduce plastic waste and save money/the world. Home by Natural Harry considers every room of the house (stain remover in the laundry, shower cleaner in the bathroom, dishwashing liquid in the kitchen) and presents alternatives to store-bought cleaning products, as well as a comprehensive chapter on body care (from toothpaste to shampoo to foaming hand wash). Readers will also be treated to a handful of recipes for Harriet's favourite money-saving kitchen staples including oaty seed loaf, coconut yoghurt and pickled veg.
Home by Natural Harry celebrates a slower, more frugal and thoughtful life – the joys of which people the world over are learning to respect and embrace.
About the Author

This culminated in her first book, Natural Harry , the success of which led to Whole (driven by her equally passionate mission to celebrate the abundance of whole, colourful plant foods and recipes). When she is not cooking, or surfing, or tending her veggie patch with dog Fred by her side, she is busy working on her blog, hosting workshops and creating content designed to make people think.
