EcoSpace at the Grey Lynn Park Festival 2011

Saturday 19th November 9.30am – 5.30pm

For the last 2 years Grey Lynn 2030 has hosted the Eco-space at the Festival.  Located around a huge teepee the Eco- space is a village of groups that share a sustainability,  community and local focus. 

This year we will be joined in the Eco-space by:

  •  Kelmarna gardens and Framework Trust
  • Grey Lynn Farmers Market
  • Tumeke Cycle Space, the community bike maintenance group, who will be bringing their famous bike powered smoothie machine
  • Carol Downer, local professional beekeeper and her hives (Carol’s honey is on sale at the Grey Lynn Farmers’ Market every Sunday)
  • Our sister transition community of Mount Eden Village People.
  • Grey Lynn Business Association promoting a new Grey Lynn Neighbourhood Watch initiative
  • Grey Lynn Community Centre
  • Grey Lynn 2030 Waste Away
  • Auckland Community Zero Waste Alliance – Waste minimisation  display
  • Toi Ora Arts Trust
  • Mexi – Kai truck

The interior of the teepee will be transformed into a comfortable, tranquil place to chill in away from the festival crowds.  Drop by the Eco- space to relax, find out more about sustainable living and how to get involved locally.
