Fabric -A-Brac ...on this Saturday in Greytown!

The Team from Destination Wairarapa

Fabric-a-brac is a fun fabric and sewing supplies market where you can shop for vintage and modern sewing and upholstery fabric, patterns, haberdashery and more. It brings the sewing community together to share stashes, stories and delight in our mutual love of textiles.
Fabric-a-brac Greytown is held on Wellington Anniversary, in conjunction with the annual Sidewalk Sale in Greytown (incredible deals on one-offs, samples, and surplus stock from locally-owned stores) so it’s a great excuse to have a trip to Wairarapa! It’s held in the Greytown Town Hall on Main St. 10am -12pm.
Fabric-a-brac is volunteer-run, and is a fundraiser for hospice – in Greytown this is Hospice Wairarapa. All profits from this event are donated to their work.

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.
