I've cloth diapered for 4 years and love natural fabrics and yet I've never tried wool until now. Why is that? Probably for the same reasons that lots of other mothers have resisted, namely: Wool is more expensive Wool requires special care Wool requires special detergent Wool takes a really long time to dry So if you are one who is hesitating, I completely understand! However, thanks to Little Spruce Organics, I am now the proud owner of a beautiful Disana wool cover in size Continue Reading

Kammie says "I started this business to help my husband meet our financial needs to build our vision for Continue Reading
Carrot Casserole with Crumb Topping: a Southern Favorite
Root vegetables like carrots, turnips, sweet potatoes, beets and onions are staples in the South, but lots of people associate them with fall and the harvest table.
