Welcome to Slow Growth
This blog is born out of a simple but powerful idea: small choices matter. When it comes to living more sustainably, eating more thoughtfully, exploring the natural beauty around us, or facing the challenges of climate change, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. But I truly believe that little steps — taken with care and intention — can ripple out into something much bigger.
Here, you’ll find posts on a few things close to my heart:
Sustainability — Simple ways to live with less waste, more mindfulness, and a deeper connection to the planet. Whether it’s switching up habits at home or rethinking how we consume, sustainability starts with awareness.
Vegetarian Living — I’ll share vegetarian recipes, tips for plant-based eating, and ideas for making everyday meals both delicious and climate-friendly. It’s not about perfection — it’s about progress.
Hiking Lane County — Living in Lane County, Oregon, we’re surrounded by forests, waterfalls, and mountains just begging to be explored. I’ll take you along my favorite local hikes, sharing trail guides, hidden gems, and the deep peace that nature brings.
Climate Change Conversations — I’ll also dive into the bigger issues — the real, urgent conversations about climate change. But I’ll keep it grounded, solution-focused, and hopeful, because we need both urgency and optimism to move forward.
You don’t have to be a zero-waste expert, a vegan chef, or an activist to make a difference. If you’re curious, willing to learn, and ready to celebrate progress over perfection, you’re already on the right path.
Slow Growth is meant to be a place of encouragement — not judgment. A place where we celebrate every reusable cup, every meatless Monday, every time we choose the trail instead of the couch. Because in the end, it’s the little things — multiplied by millions of people — that change the world.
