Have Yourself a Sustainable Easter

Easter is a time of joy, renewal, and reflection, and what better way to celebrate than by making it a sustainable Easter? From decorations to gifts, there are many ways to make Easter more eco-friendly and reduce our impact on the planet.

Create a more eco-friendly Easter celebration with just a few simple changes. Here are some tips to get you started;

1. Ditch the plastic: One of the easiest ways to make your Easter celebration more sustainable is to avoid plastic as much as possible. Instead of buying plastic Easter eggs or baskets, opt for reusable ones made from natural materials like bamboo, wood, or fabric.
2. Shop local and organic: When purchasing Easter goodies like chocolate and lollies, choose organic products, fair trade, and locally sourced. This supports sustainable agriculture and reduces the carbon footprint of shipping and transportation.
3. Upcycle decorations: Instead of buying new decorations or ornaments yearly, get creative and upcycle items you already have. For example, use old jars and bottles to create rustic centrepieces.
4. Plant an Easter garden: Take advantage of the spring weather and plant an Easter garden with your family or friends. You can grow herbs, vegetables, and flowers that beautify your space and provide fresh, healthy produce.
5. Give eco-friendly gifts: If you're planning on giving Easter gifts, consider items that are eco-friendly and sustainable, such as organic skin care products, reusable straws, or biodegradable seed bombs if you are looking for something chocolate free. And, of course, for chocolate lovers, choose organic fair trade chocolate made with ethically sourced premium ingredients.

Small changes like these help create a more sustainable Easter celebration that benefits the environment and creates lasting memories with loved ones. 

So, whether you're celebrating with a small group of friends or hosting a big family gathering, make this year a fun and memorable sustainable Easter.
