Hi we need volunteers to help us maintain our compost at CBEC in exchange for some compost to take home! Every second Tuesday of the month we need extra hands. Eco Solutions collect paper towels from kindis, and the waste from the Kaitaia Market and compost it, we then gift it back to the kindis and kura, we would love a few extra hands to turn the compost every month, and lawn clippings, we are happy for helpers to take home compost in return! Please email, I never answer my phone!

We would love some seaweed or fish frames for the compost and gardens. Access to the beach isn't always easy but happy to collect from around Kaitaia areas.

Kia ora, does anyone have or know someone who has PVC off-cuts? We're needing a small length to fix or water pipe. 200mm. Length isn't important, at least 2 metres would be great. Txt me on 021 048 6394 or email. Thanks Caryl

Has anyone got little self seeded Camelia plants under their established bushes? Ideally pink or red ones? I'd love to come by and dig some up for transplanting to our place. I have plenty of the white camelia sinensis (tea plant) but would love to add some color. Many thanks!

We still need compost helpers at CBEC!! We would love you to come help us, we take paper towels and foodwaste and create wonderful compost that we give to kindis, but we need help. Volunteers will be welcome to go home with a bag of compost or three!! Ideally we would make this a regular once a month event, please let us know what days you are free.

We (KaitaiaCycle) are in need of spray free lawn clippings for our compost to balance with more nitrogen. Drop off to either CBEC or by the compost bins near drop in surf shop. We can provide empty fadges/wool bales for filing and sort a swap system at either or both places. This would be fantastic if it was a weekly/fortnightly arrangement. Contact Waikarare if you can help 021 162 8071.
