Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year for many, but it's also the most wasteful. 

Kate 'Ethically Kate' Hall has a few tips for making sustainable choices this holiday season:

-Shop local, buy from small vendors at Christmas or farmers markets

-Consider making food the present or focus to reduce pointless gifts

-Serve less meat, or pick meat that is sustainable sourced (e.g. Premium Game, the only wild meat hunted in NZ)

-BYO takeaway containers to your Holiday events to reduce food waste

-Use reusables instead of single use for your cutlery, dishes, etc.

-Gift your leftovers to local food pantries or community groups
