intro



Our blog is a communal place for vegebees to get together, vegetarian, vegan or veggie lovin' meat eaters alike to share ideas, information and experiences on how we can 'bee green'!

From recipes, cafe and restaurant reviews, to product reviews and ideas on how to live better, simpler, more eco friendly and more...green.

We live, work and drink tea in Manchester, and we will review places in and around the area, but also on our travels. Let us know if there's any places or products you think we should know about - we'd love to hear from you!

Man Made Home

Currently on Channel 4 there is a fantastic programme, 'Kevin McCloud's Man Made Home.'
Kevin McCloud who presents 'Grand Designs' is turning his hand to constructing a cabin in the woods using only materials from the land, and from other peoples waste, unwanted items recycling and reusing them.
He is building the cabin with the help of friends and professionals, using eco friendly methods, where possible, and aims to have the cabin 'off grid' .
In the first episode he finds away to product crude oil out of fatty sewage waste, and makes his own ale!
The show is lighthearted, fun and inspirational. Showing ways and methods for how to build with sustainability and thoughtfulness in mind.

Answering the question: "Can a simple, more creative life make you happier?"

The first episode you can catch online at 4OD (OnDemand) whilst the second episode will be airing on Sunday 30th Sept at 8pm on Channel 4 (UK).
