Drink From The Tap

Drinks bottled in any kind of plastic are a potential menace to our waterways, our marine life and, consequently, to our air. All we have to do is commit to drinking the clean water we can all access. 

Stay Safe, But Reuse

Reusable cups are back on the table for coffee lovers during Alert Level 3, with food plans, and level 3 guidelines working together. Clever folks at NZ hospo have created systems to operate that keep them, us and our planet safe ~ Click HERE to read all about it. As they say. 

Mug Library

Dear NZ Hospo 🌻 Click HERE for free guides and signs 🌻 Providing an alternative, such as retaling reusables, or having a mug library, or a jar library, can hugely reduce your waste output, and the constant cost of single use packaging.

Becuase isn't that what this is all about? Doing things differently? Turning away from exisitng business models that involve the inevitable exchnage of $$$ and instead saying, "We're a community, so let's behave like one". It could change the world....
