This Thursday from 3 to 5 p.m., Cumberland Community School Society Environment Club members will be at Seeds Food Market as a part of the ongoing Laundry Project.

Students will share a recipe for making your own inexpensive, eco-laundry soap, along with tips for doing laundry in a more environmentally friendly way.

Customers will receive a sample of the soap to take home and try.

鈥淭his event is part of a new series of community-based projects from the Cumberland Museum and Archives that shine a spotlight on the beautifully mundane elements of domestic life 鈥� both in the past and in our contemporary everyday lives,鈥� say Cumberland Museum staff.

This month-long project runs until March 3 and combines hands-on learning about the history of Cumberland with community projects in partnership with local businesses and other non-profit groups.
