Market Day Conversations- 10 November 2013


The Friends of the Farm and Foreshore were in action at the local Sunday market in November, continuing to educate our community about reducing the rubbish we produce at home through composting, worm farming and bokashi.  We met some likeminded locals who are already doing these things and are keen to be involved in our initiative.  We spoke to several people who are interested in finding ways of reducing the rubbish produced through their workplaces, including an early childhood centre and a stallholder at the market.  

Our signage and educational resources drew people in and sparked conversations about waste issues in our community.  Our initiative continues to build a network of knowledgeable, interested people who love our Mangere Bridge community and want to make it a better, more environmentally sustainable place for us all to live in.
