Everyday household items such as vinegar, baking soda, and lemon juice have been used in homemade cleaning and gardening solutions for ages. Big chemical companies pushed them aside years ago and convinced consumers to switch to harsh toxic chemical products for everyday household chores.

Fortunately, these ingredients are making a comeback (some big commercial brands are touting vinegar as though it’s a recent discovery) and the new U-Mix-It Safe Spray 4-Pack at Park + Vine is here to help reduce dependency on toxic cleaning products. The bottles are effective, affordable (one gallon of vinegar produces more than 80 spray bottles of the shower cleaning recipe), and kind to lungs, eyes and skin. Each bottle is printed with easy-to-mix recipes that will not wash off.

Special thanks to our sweet friend, Abby Artemisia, for sending us on a mission to bring these practical little bottles and recipes into the store.
