# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Whānau friendly Love Food Hate Waste workshop for Matariki – Glen Eden
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 08 Jul, 2026 at 10:30 am – Wed, 08 Jul, 2026 at 12:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Matariki is a time to celebrate with kai (food), gather, and reflect on te taiao (the environment), making it a perfect opportunity to practice sustainability by reducing food waste. Join Wei for this Love Food Hate Waste – Matariki whānau friendly workshop. Bring a few vegetarian soup ingredients such as herbs, garden produce, or simply veges in your fridge that are edible, just looking a bit tired. Together we will make a warm hearty soup to share.

We will be learning about each whetū (star) and ā rātou tohu o te taiao (their environmental signs); reflecting on the knowledge of kai we have each learned from our own ancestors.

Practical advice about how to be creative with your fresh food and leftovers will be given, to help them last longer. Making the most of the food we have helps save money and is better for the environment. We will play a few games and sing waiata together to consolidate our learning.

This workshop is designed for children 10 years and above and their whānau. Please register one ticket per child and one ticket per accompanying adult. Each child must be accompanied by at least one adult.

This is a hands-on activity. Please bring your chopping board and your taste buds along.

Please inform wei@ecomatters.org.nz if any food allergies need to be accommodated.
