Katie Kimball spent a lot of time outside “growing up green,” as a child in a country neighborhood filled with frogs, a best friend and tall grass to hide in. She is committed to being a good steward of all God’s gifts, and taking care of the earth is part of daily life as an at-home mom of two young children in Michigan. Katie also spends a lot of time in the kitchen tending her sourdough starter, chopping vegetables, wondering what to do with liver, and doing dishes. She has a small love affair with her dishwasher, an EnergySaver running on eco-friendly detergent and no pre-rinsing. A former teacher, she feels blessed to blog at Kitchen Stewardship, where she shares baby steps to balancing your health, earth, time and money through the eyes of faith. |

Tiffany Larson can’t remember a day of her childhood spent inside. She was riding bikes, rollerblading, building forts or playing in the snow. Her mother raised her on healthy food before it became popular and only when she had her first child, did the importance of a healthy lifestyle become a priority again. She is passionate about passing on her love for the outdoors and a healthy lifestyle to her two young children and her family spends their free time on the snow, water, dirt or road! She also loves interior design, reading, playing tennis, photography and has a small obsession with coupons. Tiffany can be found on Facebook at Mommy Goes Green and as a contributor at The Creative Mama. |

Emily McClements, like many moms, began her journey toward natural living when she found out she was pregnant with her first child. From cloth diapers to homemade green cleaners, she began making small changes toward a simpler more natural lifestyle. When her husband lost his job a year later, she scrambled to also learn how to live as frugally as possible. She quickly realized that many things that save money also save the earth, and began chronicling her journey toward living “frugally green” at Live Renewed. She is now the proud mama of two little ones, and although her husband sometimes wonders what she has done with the woman he married, she is passionate about helping her family live differently and responsibly as they strive to be a good steward of all of the resources God has provided them with. |
