Sunday, 30 August 2026
2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Devonport Library
2 Victoria Road, Devonport, 0624, Auckland

"Join Sarah Williams at #DevonportLibrary for this Love Food Hate Waste Workshop – #GrowYourOwn micro-greens and sprouts.

Learn how to cultivate these nutritious greens at home, from seed to harvest. Participants will make their own tray of micro-greens to take home, so please bring a plastic container and lid such as a shallow take away container.

Micro-greens and sprouts have nutritional value and are also a cost effective green food that you can grow in your home all year round, saving plastic and food waste.

We’ll get hands on and make dips and dressings using the micro-greens and back of the fridge items – showing you how to get creative with reducing food waste.

The workshop will also cover practical advice on how to avoid food waste in the kitchen including how to store fresh produce to help it last longer.

This Love Food Hate Waste workshop is proudly supported by #AucklandCouncil, #DevonportLibrary and is delivered by #CompostCollective.

Spaces are limited, booking is essential."

Today the Puketāpapa Local Board had a shared lunch after our final business meeting for 2022. We passed unanimously the plan change 78-83 feedback I helped prepare & our Annual Budget feedback that highlighted how cuts to discretionary LB funding would affect local communities- the Mayor's proposed 5% cut to local board budgets sounds small but translates to 47% of our programmes.
