About us

South Wellington people are helping to build a sustainable, healthy community. One that is resilient in the face of climate change, resource depletion and overconsumption.

We are planning on having public meetings every month, and a film screening every month also. Check the wellington south page and the google group for notifications about events.

Rimu Atkinson is the contact person for this group, but any questions can just as easily be asked in the forum.

This public meeting is a chance to:

  • re-group and look forward for the year with a plan of next meetings etc;
  • for the Food Group to give a run down on where things are at.  (You will probably be aware, funding has been lost for this and we need to make some decisions about the orchard's progression);
  • to seek volunteers to "man/woman" the Newtown stall
