World Car-Free Day on Friday 22 September

Communications from Hastings District Council

What are you doing for World Car-Free Day on Friday, 22 September?

Are you stuck for ideas? Maybe you could do a walking bus, a bicycle train or a scooter trail to school with a group and see how many people you can get to join. Dress up your shoes or decorate your bike or scooter for the special occasion. You could even get your kura to hold a wheel’s day.

Take a picture, draw us your design, or write a story about how you got to and from school and work using your bike, scooter or walking, email it to iway@hdc.govt.nz and you go in the draw to win one of our awesome prizes.

Let’s leave the car at home and support cleaner, greener, healthier communities. #worldcarfreeday2023

Green potatoes

Elva from Taradale

Why do the supermarkets and others sell green potatoes. They are toxic and should be covered with a sack or something dark so the light doesn't get to them.
