Celebrating a Waste Free Easter
Easter can be a time of fun and celebration, but it can also generate a lot of waste with plastic eggs, chocolate wrappers, and disposable decorations. Here are some waste-free Easter ideas:
-
Try natural egg dyes made from fruits and vegetables. Turmeric, Paprika, onion skins and beetroot all work well.
-
Use recycled materials like paper and cardboard to make your own Easter decorations instead of buying new ones.
-
Hit up your local op shops for Easter Baskets, that can be kept to use year after year.
-
Consider giving non-chocolate gifts, like books, puzzles or check out our adorable range of fair trade felt Easter toys.
-
Buy fair-trade or locally made chocolate, we have a few delicious options in store and online.
-
Try some Easter baking, like Easter Buns or Ukrainian Easter Bread.
-
Host an eco-friendly Easter egg hunt by using reusable eggs made from wood or metal, or hiding clues instead of eggs.
- Try our wooden egg cups for an easter morning brekkie, these can be dyed and decorated as part of a fun Easter activity too!!
By incorporating these waste-free Easter ideas, you can have a fun and environmentally conscious holiday.
