Thinking Green is a free community sustainable living workshop series presented by the City of Swan, split into 2 month programs which align with the Noongar seasons. They are held at the City's libraries and other local venues.
Thinking Green aims to inspire participants to change their lifestyle in order to improve their well-being and be kinder to the environment.
The City of Swan is pleased to offer its residents and ratepayers a $130 subsidy on a new worm farm.
This reduces your outlay to $130 and includes a free instructional workshop. There is also an option of a $65 subsidy to buy 1kg of worm, reducing your outlay to $65. This is ideal for those who have an existing worm farm which needs revitalising.
Modern reusable cloth nappies can be simple, save you money and reduce waste.
The City is offering free modern reusable cloth nappy kits to City of Swan residents and ratepayers who attend an informative workshop.
The kits will include two reusable cloth nappies with various inserts, an adjustable swim nappy, cloth wipes and a wet bag (approximately $160 retail value).
Workshops are presented by Sara from Earthside Eco Bums and cover how to use, fit and wash modern reusable cloth nappies, and include time for questions and problem solving.
Please note: Anyone can attend a workshop however only City of Swan residents and/or ratepayers are eligible for a kit. One kit per household.
