Trentham Sustainability Group presents Sustainability Day

In February 2008 a group of locals got together to see what they could do to reduce their impact on the environment, strengthen community and build resilience to upcoming environmental challenges.

And what better way to achieve this than to have a day open to all that showcases sustainable living practices.

So on Saturday 22nd November from 9am to 1pm, the Sustainability Group will be holding Sustainability Day in the Trentham town square.

There will be a number of great displays and you can learn what you can do to reduce your impact on our environment.

On the day you can:
Pick up a free show bag that contains examples of sustainable living practices and some great product samples

Jump on a bus and take a tour of 4 sustainable houses around Trentham and see what others have done to reduce their environmental footprints.  Buses leave from the town square at 10am and 1pm promptly and the tour runs for approximately 2 1/2 hours.  You can pre-book a seat or turn up – you’ll be amazed at what you see in your own backyard.

Sign up for the opportunity to have all your suitable household lightglobes replaced free of charge by Envirosaver.

Check out the SolaHart Solar Hot Water display, where you can talk to an expert and take advantage of a special offer to receive a $300 discount on a new unit.  To take up this special offer you will need to get the Trentham Sustainability Day code available on the day.
