Our events are going green!

Media Team from Christchurch City Council

Heading along to the final night of the Christchurch Lantern Festival? Help the planet while you're at it – Christchurch is trialling compostable packaging for the food and drink available at the Lantern Festival this year – which means a lot less waste for the landfill.

If it's brown - it will break down.
Look for the ECO symbol and put it in the green bin.
All other packaging goes into the red bin.

The ECO symbol means "Event Compostable Only" – make sure you bin it at the event, and not at home.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
