Comment on Unpackit Team Shortlisting for Awards by kees van Epenhuijsen

Worst packaging I come across are

Anathoth spread container: very difficult to open and rim not to possible keep clean.
Jif containers: the plastic pin does not fit in the container after it has been used a few times so I have to use a nail.
Oral B replacement brushes .Try to get them out from the packaging.
Anchor Vanilla custards and its competitor . You never get it all of the ustard out of the waxed cardboards containers and they are not recyclable.
Kleenex toilet paper . The package is not easy to hold while the plastic cover has not a perforated spot to rip it open.

Best: the recyclable and with refills available Palmolive handsoap pump

Are there still tickets for the biodynamic workshop?
I am wanting to learn as much as possible about organic and bio dynamic gardening though I am a complete novice! I was at one of Dr Compost’s talks in Queenstown end of year 2011 which was great about building a raised vege garden.
If I can’t pop into Wanaka Wastebusters as I live in Queenstown, can i reserve a ticket and send the money?
Cheers Clarice

Hello Su

Peter Proctor and I are very pleased to see you are running this program. It will be very stimulating for Wanaka Organics. As Peter often says, “Biodynamics makes organic farming work!” We enjoyed working with you back in the Burn Cottage days.
Wishing you sunny skies and happy participants at your workshops,
Rachel Pomeroy
