Wonderful Wild Garlic (Allium ursinum) – And my Favourite Way to Eat it: Wild Garlic-Oil

Posted on April 17, 2021October 18, 2021 by Malu

Its that time of the year where foraging is exciting even to those who don’t like the acquired taste of many wild plants: Wild garlic is popping up and I am spending my free time looking for it in the forest close to my home. Yesterday, I even bumped into a wild boar, who was…

Warming Winter Breakfast Oats

Posted on February 10, 2021October 18, 2021 by Malu

It snowed! It’s cold! And I decided to get back into the habit of having fruit for breakfast. There is not a lot of fruit in the middle of winter but thankfully the freezer is full of things from when the garden was full of food. I just made something with what I had, and…

Home Made Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Posted on July 5, 2019April 18, 2021 by Malu

We’re having a heatwave at the moment. The kind where you wake up early, have a siesta and work at night. My terrace has a pebble-floor that gets so hot in the sun, I can only stand on them barefoot for a few seconds. Perfect conditions to dry some food! Who would have imagined, in…

Sourdough Bread From Scratch

Posted on December 10, 2018April 18, 2021 by Malu

As a German, I have always taken good, tasty, wholesome, filling bread for granted. In the last few years, I’ve lived in quite a few different places. One stereotype about Germans that is definitely true, is that they come home from vacation and tell you “it was AMAZING! …but the bread was shit”. Here I…

About me

My name is Malu. I am a conservation-ecologist currently living in Germany. I’ve always been wild about the outdoors and can spend hours looking at an insect labouring away at its daily challenges, or a bird building its nest, or … there’s just so much amazing stuff happening out there! I’m really glad you’ve made it onto this page so I can share my joy with you.

Monthly Challenges

We only have about 6 to 8 years left to turn this environmental mess of a ship around. So much has to happen politically, but the people also need to change habits and start to appreciate our environment more. So every 1st of the month I post a nature care challenge with environmentally friendly lifestyle choices of habits for you to try for 30 days and, if you like, let it stick with you for longer, maybe even for life.

Lots of little droplets make up the largest ocean.

Are you absolutely unable to do the current challenge? Or maybe you are underwhelmed with the challenge and want an extra one? Check out the previous challenges to see if there is something you would like to try.

The challenges  make up the major part in the flow of posts here, so they are easy to find. But if you want to get a good overview of the challenges set so far, simply follow the link below.

Do you want to set next month’s sustainability challenge?

Contact me and pitch your challenge to me. It might be up next month. You can either write the whole challenge, and why we should do it, or just give me an idea for something to look into.
