Kia ora tātou,We’re starting to get glimpses of summer, it’s a busy time in the maara (garden) with planting out spring seedlings, and the countdown to the holiday season is on. If you’re wondering how you can make your Christmas more sustainable, head along to The Junction Zero-Waste Holiday Market for local, handmade, sustainable gifts, as well as tips and tricks from experts on how you can reduce your waste this holiday season. This time of year also brings the much-anticipated return of the Festival of Lights at Pukekura Park! This year we are calling out for Waste Warrior volunteers to help make the festival zero-waste. If you’re keen to get involved, please get in touch. We’d love to have you on the team! Don’t forget to BYO containers/cutlery for zero-waste picnics this summer. The Bring It! New Plymouth Campaign has teamed up with cafes around town to reward people who BYO containers/cutlery. Here is your last chance to enter the competition to be in to win a beautiful Pottery for the Planet ceramic travel bowl. Enjoy the sunshine, remember to slip, slop, slap and wrap and we look forward to connecting with you in the new year! Ngā mihi, The Sustainable Taranaki tīma
