Sustainable South Canterbury Trust is developing an Eco Centre for Timaru and surrounding districts, to demonstrate and educate on practical solutions for sustainability.  It will be next door to our Crow's Nest reuse shop, off Redruth Street.

Everyone in the community will have access to this resource, and all are welcome to join in creating it.  We're delighted to acknowledge a capital grant of $150,000 towards phase one building work from Mid & South Canterbury Community Trust, announced in Nov 2017 and similar grant support from Timaru District Council in 2018. Further grant applications are in progress. First stage of building work starts November 2018.

Perhaps you would like to learn how to grow your own food.  Or maybe know more about building eco-design, or recycling and mimimising waste. Whatever the query,  we aim to make a way to help you towards sustainability:  through displays, events and education.  Explore our site.
