Transition Café: Practical, Homemade Tips for a More Sustainable Lifestyle

The Transition Café on 24th July was a lively event sharing practical, homemade tips for a more sustainable lifestyle. We  swapped various recipes for cleaning, cosmetics, and food/drinks. The full list comprises laundry detergent, scouring cream, kitchen sink cleaner, shower head cleaner, olive oil mask for hair, gram flour face mask, deodorant, kombucha, fruit vinegar and oat milk. If you missed the event, you can download the booklet with all recipes from the Transition Café website and try them at home.

You can make this pot of deodorant at home. The ingredients are coconut oil, beeswax, sodium bicarbonate, cornstarch, and essential oils. Download all recipes from our website

The Transition Café is a monthly event series with lively conversations, talks, films, workshops and presentations about all the things we are passionate about to build a great community in our city. It takes place in different locations across Cambridge. After the event, everyone is invited to stay to meet like-minded people, network, explore new ideas, and get to know others involved with Transition Cambridge. We have more topics planned through to December: see the Transition Café calendar.
