Zero Waste Period
This class is for you ifâŠ
You get periods and youâre ready to ditch single-use plastic-filled menstrual products. Â
You want to learn about the ecological and health impacts of menstrual products on the market⊠even alternatives that are seemingly green and harmless.
You want safe, eco-friendly menstrual product alternatives that are suited to your needs⊠and youâre eager for tutorial videos to learn how in the heck to choose & use them.
Menstrual pain is a dang pain in your uterus, and youâre up for science-backed techniques and herbal remedies to curb your symptoms.
Why we created this classâŠ

Hi, there! Weâre Christelle and Cristina, a.k.a., the Permacrafters! Growing up, we both learned that periods were a topic to tiptoe around. Even period commercials wanted to keep menstruation as discreet as possible â they wouldnât utter the word âperiodâ or dare to show red blood on the screen.
Well, weâre breaking the dang stigma for three main reasons. First, periods are gosh darn special and not something anyone should ever feel ashamed about. Second, we deserve to have safe menstrual products that do not contain toxic components. And third, the way we are currently managing our periods is trashing the planet, and there are simple solutions to this.
Consider this your updated sex-ed/biology class with innovative sustainable menstruation alternatives that donât harm the environment. When we first switched to cloth pads and menstrual cups and underwear, we SO wish we had had these tutorial videos available about how to choose our products and how in the world to use them. How do I prevent my cloth pad from slipping? How do I measure my cervix to choose my menstrual cup? How the heck do I take out my cup without it hurting like &^%? Is this hand-knit alpaca-wool tampon in the shape of a rocket safe for me to use?!
In this class, weâll answer all your questions about finding the best low-waste menstrual products for you. And if you experience PMS (pre-menstrual syndrome) or painful periods, youâll benefit from our section on proven techniques and homemade herbal remedies to support you during menstruation.
To help you in your transition to a safe sustainable menstruation, weâve gathered the most valuable information for you in this online class: Zero Waste Period.
Imagine if…
⊠you had the peace of mind that the menstrual products or flow management techniques you were using werenât harming your health or the environment.
⊠you didnât have to buy sanitary products for the coming decade (âŠand you could spend your savings on umm⊠chocolate!?!)
⊠you had full support to achieve your goals through video tutorials, an e-workbook, and a helpful online community.
