Help Save Mother Earth

I used to watch YouTube movies about the Stone Age, early humankind and how the modern man evolved. Realising how people that time used to live and eat drew my attention to find out more about their lifestyle and especially, what they ate.

During the same time, I read an article in a newspaper about several celebrities and their eating habits.

Among them was Henry Ford that loved to eat Wild Edible Plants (Afrikaans onkruid). Immediately I knew what to name my blog.

I started the Tin Lizzie Food blog in 2017 and the whole idea of the blog was to illustrate Wild Edible Plants. It dawned on me how fascinated I was about the Homesteading and Sustainability concept.

Today, with all the hype about climate change and ‘saving the earth’, I realised how close to the earth I’ve been living all my life. I truly want to do everything in my power to be a part of it - to be able to say one day that I tried my fair best to conserve our natural resources and to reduce my carbon footprint.
