Explore thoughtful, low waste ways to give meaningful gifts that are practical, personal and kind to the planet.This hands on workshop is a relaxed chat and creative session focused on low waste gift giving. We will share ideas for gifts that are useful, intentional and made with care, perfect for the festive season or any time you want to give something special.
You will make and take home at least two handmade gifts during the session. Options may include beeswax wraps, preserved lemons, raw treats or a curated succulent selection bowl. Each piece can be finished with a personal message, making your gifts truly one of a kind.
Perfect for anyone wanting to reduce waste, avoid over packaging and give gifts that feel meaningful rather than disposable.
Spaces are limited. Bookings essential.
**About Peg**
Peg Davies is a waste educator, speaker and long-time advocate for living with less waste. With over 13 years of experience working across local government, schools and communities, Peg is known for making waste education practical, engaging and surprisingly fun. Her guiding principle is simple: an empty bin is a good bin.
Peg has developed and delivered award-winning education programs, workshops and training initiatives, including the highly regarded Earth Carers course at Mindarie Regional Council. Her work has been widely recognised, with Costa from Gardening Australia describing her approach as “probably the best waste education you’re likely to get.”
Having lived in inner-suburban Perth for more than 40 years, Peg brings a deeply local and lived perspective to her work, explored through her ongoing project The Last Tip. Her sessions focus on ‘lessence’ – the essence of less – showing how small, thoughtful changes can create meaningful impact without being costly or overwhelming.
