There were only good vibes at Sammy’s last night for a great night to celebrate the opening of the Fair Trade Fortnight. SEA (Students for Environmental Action), did a fantastic job organising the event. The stalls were informative- DCC (Dunedin City Council) had plenty of good quality brochures about composing and worm farms and helpful fridge magnets. Trade Aid were popular with free chocolate samples, Green party, volunteer Dunedin, and other organic stalls.
I volunteered, helping Tahu McKenzie ( iconic dunedinite) paint faces. Those who were gutsy enough, as it was my first time face painting & I recommend it as a fun time.
Unfortunately I had to leave early just as the music was kicking into gear. My highlights were- free seed bombs, free chocolate, tasty organic bread and pesto and delicious organic beer samples. The atmosphere was good feel, music was lively and upbeat, it was warming up to be a good memorable night out.
