Check out all our winter warming events this May/June and get ready for the colder weather with one of our brrrrr-illiant projects..!
Curtain Bank
Now's the time to sign up for the curtain bank if your feeling chilly at home. Good quality, well-fitting curtains can noticeably reduce heat loss- and we run a project that will find, measure and fit your curtains for free! Sign up at WEC.
If you'd like to be involved in this project, we're also looking for volunteers to come along and help measure and sort curtains at our June working bee. They'll be free cake! And tea! Come meet our friendly team and other lovely locals. If you're a timebank member you'll also earn a credit.
@ Raglan Town Hall, Bow Street, June 3rd, 12.00
Winter Kai Workshop
Indoor gardening! Well...kind of...! Come along to our Timebank Fermenting, Sprouting and Microgreens Workshop. Learn from our knowledgeable locals, taste and try out fermented veges and take home some samples and microgreen trays to continue producing at home.
Register by phone 825 0480, or email timebank@whaingaroa.org.nz
$2.00 Koha for materials, 26th May 6-8pm, location on registration
Door Snake Sewers Needed!
Door snakes are a great way to stop cold drafts sneeking under doors. We sell them in our Enviro shop and need keen volunteers to help stuff and sew a bunch of new snakes to build up some Winter stock. Pop in to see us if you can help! It'll be much appreciated.
Love Your Water Tree Planting
At the end of the month our friends Sustainable Coastlines have organised a 2-day tree planting. So come along and warm up with some digging! Saturday morning they'll also be at Xtreme Waste's Name Change party. Head there for 10.30 for upcycling, mural making, morning tea fun and then go plant some trees!
