SPECIAL TOURS FOR FOOD BUSINESSES – 8 March
We are also inviting food businesses and our partner organisations to come for a special small group tour of Kaibosh at 12noon or 1pm on 8 March (before we open to the wider public from 2pm).
This is a chance to see first-hand what a tonne of locally rescued surplus food looks like, as we sort, check and pack ready for distribution. Kaibosh staff will be on hand to answer your questions and share information about our mahi, the positive impacts we are making in the community and how we work with food donors. These are 30 minute tours at 12 noon and 1:00pm, 8 March.
BOOKINGS ESSENTIAL: email to RSVP@kaibosh.org.nz with your preferred time.
