$Community Open Day - P\u0113puere \/ February$

Respecting Papatūānuku is a way in which we can all do our bit under Te Tiriti o Waitangi, so join us this Waitangi weekend to get your hands in the māra and learn about our methods to leave this whenua better than we found it.
Have you been looking for a chance to visit Kaicycle Urban Farm? Come along our Community Open Day regularly in spring, summer, and autumn! Each open day includes a working bee, shared lunch, koha workshop, and compost sales. Come along for as much or as little of the day as you would like!

Many hands make light work - come and get your hands in the māra - with a bunch of us we'll be able to get a good chunk of mahi done, plus you'll take some skills home for your own māra! Register at www.kaicycle.org.nz/volunteer
