Sandbag amnesty- help us build our raised wicking beds
You have too many sandbags? You want them to have a hood use when you no longer want them?
We need sand to build our raised self-wicking community garden.
If you have lots of bags to donate we may be able to come and pick them up.
If you have just a few we would love if you could drop them off at the Gribblehirst Hub, 5 Cabbage Tree Swamp Drive (go past the Rugby Club, simply drop off inside the chain in the left hand corner.
Pls mark them with a C if they have been subjected to contaminated water and we’ll sanitise/solarise the sand before using it.
Pls contact coordinator@ghub.nz for more information. Thanks for your support.
Here’s a photo of how we use it.
