Spring has sprung: Reset with some sustainable spring activities

Spring has sprung and it’s the perfect time to pick up a few simple, sustainable habits that connect you to nature. 

Kate Hall has a few suggestions that she joined Jack Tame to delve into, including:  

  • Plant and swap: Sow quick wins like salad greens, radishes, and herbs. Share or swap seeds and seedlings with neighbours.  
  • Line-drying: The spring winds are free! Ditch the dryer and line-dry for that “fresh air” scent and big energy savings.  
  • Clean-out & donate: Spring clean time! Sort your wardrobe, kids’ toys, or kitchen gear. Donate or swap rather than binning - it keeps items in circulation.  
  • Eco-picnics: Pack homemade snacks in jars and containers, bring reusable cups and cutlery, and enjoy local parks or beaches waste-free.
