Learn to Sew and Tuesday Tips for Reuse
We are so happy to be offering small scale workshops at the Centre over the next 2 months thanks to Auckland Council. (Covid permitting). For now we will keep going forward.
.
Simple solutions to single use are our focus for Tuesday Tips, from home made cleaners to shopping bags, bunting to cutlery holders for celebrations. Basic sewing machine skills are required but if you don't have them yet then join one of our Learn to Sew sessions in the afternoon where you will learn to thread a machine, wind a bobbin and learn straight and zigzag stitches on the machine. These are FREE workshops and all materials will be supplied, donations are gratefully accepted to keep the van running and the insurances covered and all those other basics that we need.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
