Choose your own {eco} adventure (+ giveaway)
A five minute instant raised vegetable garden

Nature is everywhere - you just have to take a moment to look.

Monday is usually our urban adventure day. But today was busy - so instead we took a moment to wander around nearby streets looking for signs of urban nature. The concept of 'nature' is a little beyond a three year old, so I told Little Eco we were searching for bugs.

I love that nature is never too far away, no matter where you are.

Yes, I stole some violets out of someones garden. Anyone else willing to fess-up to collecting plants from neighbours gardens?

If you're wondering what Little Eco is wearing or what that blonde hair is in a few photos - she's carrying a doll in her mini mei tai.

We made the little nest ourselves, to house an abandoned egg we found, and of course the egg needed a mum. Little Eco enjoyed playing with the little nest, egg and bird all afternoon.

There's only a few hours left to choose your own {eco} adventure and be in with a chance to win a copy of Sustainable Baby. I'll be drawing the giveaway before I head off to bed tonight. So far it looks like the 'Five minute instant raised vegetable garden' is winning.
