Chickity Check It! Fashion Heels to Carrot Peels

Hey Joey!
I am a local Rockport/ Gloucester townie who is also blogging!! I have just recently started and have been trying to come up with ways to get more viewers when my best friend told me about your site. I have been off the "facebook" world for awhile so I hadn’t heard about your site, but I LOVE IT!! Its really great to see someone highlight the beautiful landscapes and local companies/ events that we all seem to forget about from time to time. Thank you for sharing, it really is a beautiful thing.
I am a 21 year old who is trying to make a conscious effort to help guide the world to live in a more sustainable way. A lot of people think its really tough to "go green" but I am here to show & help others how easy it can be! When I graduated from Rockport High School in 2008, I attended The School Of Fashion Design on Newbury St. that fall, thinking I was going to be the next big designer. The Newbury St. style, with oversize bags, glasses, and coffees seemed to be the only thing that mattered and I got swept up into this "world" before I knew it. Bag after bag, coffee after coffee I soon realized, this isn’t what I’m supposed to be doing. These things aren’t helping anyone, who is really benefiting from my designs? I quickly learned that sewing and design were my passions, but the "fashion world" was not.
I now work at a yoga center, a farm, and doing retail styling and merchandising to keep my creative juices flowing. I plan to attend North Shore Community College this fall for Environmental Science & Horticulture. I have traveled out west and stayed in an amazing "off the grid" sustainable living community called Earthships in Taos, NM which has opened my eyes so widely to the opportunities we all have to better our selves and our world and how simple it really is!
My blog is a reflection of my journey and passions. It is called Fashion Heels to Carrot Peels and is a Do It Yourself based blog with a focus on sustainability. It has crafts & recipes that are both simple and sustainable.
I wish you the best on your blogging journey & thank you for the inspiration
