Sprout Paint the Town Green

We need your help. It's as easy as 1, 2, 3

Help me and the children of Tekapo to grow and plant native seedlings around Tekapo to improve the environment, increase recycling and waste disposal and benefit our community.

 

1.

Clean your paint tins*

We're growing native seedlings in them and the seedlings will only grow in thoroughly cleaned tins.

2.

Place tins in the collection point

Outside Tekapo Auto, located behind the Challenge Petrol Station, State Highway 8, Tekapo (map below).

3.

Tins are potted with seedlings

With the help of the community we'll grow them until they're ready to be planted out around Tekapo.
