Homestead Water Management in Washing Clothes and Reusing the Water
When you are living in low water places, you may notice that every drop of water can be reused in some way. Like say anything from bathroom can be reused and you can give it to some of the plants or the trees away from the home. You can also use the water in the washed clothes and channel it back to the places where you can give it to the plant water.

What you should do with the water in the house?
- Any water from the dish washing and the food leftover can be sent back to some area where you can give it to the plants.
- You can use the wooden washing laundry board instead of using anything made of steel and the stone and save space and make things more portable.
- Any water used in the bathroom can be routed to some plants or trees. Instead of routing it in river or so this approach is much useful as it helps some tree or the region.
- If you are not using the harmful detergent, and learning how to make detergent powder at home. You can easily use that water again for plants or say to reuse the mud in some way or another.
There are lot of ways you can save water around the house for cleaning and washing. Even the water used to clean the cars, bikes and the house itself can also be used to plants and other field too.
There is always an option to save the water and reuse in one way or the other. I think it all depends on where you are and how you plan on reusing the the water for your everyday usage.
I hope you like some of these ideas. Do let me know in the comments if you like some of them.

Great post. I just found your material through @pennsif curation project and glad I did. I often think about water and waste management over here. We are forced to be heavily reliant on our water providers but having grown up in a hurricane prone area in my youth I know when water stops working you have to get creative. This is a great post. Upvoted and resteemed. :)
