Pukerua Bay Crop Swap
Crop Swapping and recycling are sustainability focused events supported by the Pukerua Bay Climate Action Group, Waste Free Pukerua Bay and a local sustainability business My Bihome. Set up is at 3pm, with a 3:15pm karakia, followed by informal introductions of our produce and story/event info sharing. Then we swap to our hearts content.
P.S. Please come along even if you have nothing to share that week. Swapping is not limited to home grown plants and anything 'garden and home' is welcome.
A recycling drop off will be available for clean lids, batteries, tinfoil etc. See here for more details: https://www.pukeruabay.org.nz/community.../waste-free-pkb/
