Well Hello There Missy…

Welcome to Sustainable Suburbia! For anyone who is reading this years in the future, here’s the down-lo.

My name’s Jess, and I created this blog to chart my journey towards living a more sustainable life in the suburbs. Like a lot of others, I have the dream of one day moving to the country, having my couple of acres, and going crazy creating a sustainable hobby farm that will feed myself and my partner Nick (though probably not my cat…).

However… also like most people, my job is in the city - and hence I have to live in suburbia in order to be close enough to work. So - a compromise. I am attempting to do all I can to realise my dream for a sustainable lifestyle in the confines of a suburban block. Welcome to the journey!
