November Pop Ups

"Can I have a ride?" This was the question we heard from lots of children when we brought our pedal-powered sewing machine to the Mangere Bridge Kid's Market in October.  The machine is available for people to ride, to generate electricity for our sewing machine as it whips up reusable bags for the community.  It's a popular draw-card for people walking past and is a great way to creatively spread our waste minimisation message. 

Over the last couple of months, we've also popped up at the Mangere Bridge Library, and we're back there again this Saturday 16 November between 11am and 12pm and at the Mangere Bridge Market on Sunday 17 November between 11am-12:30pm. We'll be making reusable bags for the Mangere Bridge Tote All Recall Bins
 

Friends of the Farm members will be on-hand to keep Mangere Bridge locals up-to-date on how you can do your bit for the planet.  We'll have our oral hygiene collection box for toothbrushes and tubes of toothpaste (any brand) that you'd like to recycle, and our battery box where you can drop off household batteries for recycling.
 

Come on down and say hello and ask us those hard-to-answer recycling questions. Or just come down to ride the bike! See you there.
