Meet the mum saving our oceans with each load of washing

Before I had kids, I could never understand why kids were always dirty. Like, is it really that hard to wash their clothes and keep them clean, naive me would think (to myself, luckily). Well pre-kids me, the answer is yes. Yes, it is that hard to wash clothes and keep them clean. I try to let them wear things for a couple of days in a row – unless they’re really filthy – because I don’t like washing and I try to keep the loads to a minimum. One mum who is also passionate about the planet and decided to do something about it, is Frankie Layton. She’s a new mum and the Founder of Melbourne based business The Dirt Company. Frankie wanted to create sustainable household products, that work, something people could really fall in love with – and are better for the environment. She joins us to share her story.
