About

Welcome to Palmera's Passion. I'm your writer/blogger/guinea pig Nina. I put all things natural to the test. It is my passion to discover the most natural, affordable and yet effective way to provide myself and my family with all things natural, organic, and healthy.

I've broken this blog up into categories to better guide your searching efforts. One for beauty, most for myself, pretty sure the boys don't need DIY lipstick. One for health and diet, and another for natural efforts around the home. In the future I may add a few more. I'm pretty sure my Whippet mix, Texas, will feel left out if I don't.

To give you a little background. I grew up on this stuff. Way before being all organic and natural was popular. We'll call it a lack of resources that forced an interest in what Mother Nature provides. I am definitely better for it.

Many, many, ugh many years ago I lived in a densely forested area of the great California state majestically named Matilija Canyon (the "J" makes more of a "ha" sound ;)) bordering the Los Padres National Forest modern day amenities were just slightly out of reach. Alas, nature provides. We gathered all kinds of foods and health remedies.

Now that I have a couple of boys, I realize just how much I want to pass this knowledge down to them. I have continued to dabble in the natural and organic world. It is after all much more accessible now. But I think it is time that I make much more of a commitment to this type of lifestyle.

So I hope you enjoy my posts as I take on this challenge, even more so I hope you come along with me. I welcome your comments and suggestions, and your own stories.
