Earth's Berries

  Are you looking for an Earth friendly laundry alternative without all the harsh chemicals that are normally found in laundry products?  Then you may want to see what Earth's Berries Soap Nuts has to offer. 

  Earth's Berries Soap Nuts are actually berries harvested from the Soapberry Tree.  These are actually used all around the world for their cleaning properties. 

  Earth's Berries are environmentally friendly, economical (1 kg bag will do 300-400 loads of laundry for only $30), they soften your clothing, protect clothing colors, neutralize odor, are safe for your septic system, and they are simple to use (just place 5 whole or 10 half soap nuts in your bag that is included and soak in hot water for 1-2 minutes and then just toss them in...bag and all). 

  Mommy in GA and Mommy in PA got a chance to try the Earth's Berries Soap Nuts and here are our thoughts:

  Mommy in GA: I used these for a few loads of clothes and I would like to start by saying my 4 year old asked me what the heck that was I was putting in with his clothes!!!  They look a little odd but, do a pretty good job cleaning! Note to self though, do NOT forget a bout the hot water, the cold just doesn't get the results!! 
My kids' have pretty sensitive skin and the hypo-allergenic product that this is did a great job not breaking the kids' out and is all around a pretty good product :)

  Mommy in PA:   The packaging for the product is so cute...and biodegradable.   I was really impressed at the ease of using the product, it didn't take long to soak the berries and then being able to reuse them for multiple loads was awesome.  I was also very impressed at their cleaning ability.  They managed to get all of my clothes looking the same as when I use the laundry soap except for the really dirt embedded socks of my daughter who has a tendency to walk in our yard with no shoes.  Even our regular laundry soap has a tough time getting those clean...lol.  I also love the fact that when you are done using the soap nuts for the recommended 4 loads you can take them out and put them in your compost.  These are also hypo-allergenic so they are great for those of you with sensitive skin.
