Christmas is a time of joy and celebration, but it’s also a season when waste spikes 30% across Australia. Instead of the traditional overindulgent Christmas lunch, we at Glimpse have launched a range of unforgettable green experiences to make holiday gatherings more meaningful this Christmas in Sydney.
Here’s 5 alternative ideas to make end of year gatherings more sustainable and fun:
- Algae Bioreactor Beer Tour (Newtown): Tour a brewery with glowing green algae bioreactor tanks that are making the beer brewing process carbon neutral over delicious beer tastings.
- Reclaimed Timber Woodworking Workshop (Marrickville): Embark on a fun woodworking experience creating your own spatula out of second-hand wood.
- Aboriginal Guided Eco-Walk (North Narrabeen, Waverton, Wollstonecraft): Join a beautiful guided bush walk with an Aboriginal Guide and learn about First Nations approaches to sustainability.
- Feast at an Urban Aquaponics Farm (Marrickville): Dine and party in the unique setting of an urban aquaponics farm surrounded by mushrooms growing in buckets, vegetables in aquaponics systems, and swimming fish.
- Vegan Yum Cha Buffet (North Curl Curl): Enjoy a buffet assortment of plant-based dumplings, buns and small plates at a hidden warehouse with vibes of a New York-style loft.
Whether you’re organising a team Christmas party or getting a group together for an alternative end of year celebration, check out Glimpse’s group experiences to inspire more sustainability this holiday season.
