Matakana Greenswap - HOME VISIT
Fridays 9am
Details to be confirmed
Established in 2008, Greenswap in Matakana draws together of group of like-minded enthusiastic, passionate people who share an interest in produce, food, a wholesome style of living, and who are willing to share information for a better more sustainable environment. Attendees come from all over the region and we welcome new greenswappers.
The group gather at the Matakana Wharf every Friday morning during summer, twice a month in autumn and spring. On quite a regular basis we also visit some outstanding properties where there are so many take home messages. Learning never stops!
The variety of items brought and swapped at Greenswap demonstrates the community's interest in homegrown and homemade goods. In addition to this the group share resources and knowledge for cultivation and practical gardening know-how.
The vibrant and diverse nature of Greenswap means the swap is not just limited to the amazing array of fruit, vegetables, homemade baking and preserves. A broader interest beyond edibles includes seaweed and comfy tonic, worm tea, vegetable and flower seedlings, candles, finger limes, herbal remedies, banana pups, flowers and plants, kombucha, compost for the garden, herbs like garlic chives, sorrel, rosemary, mint and basil to name just a few.
