Hopper Initiative

Bring your broken or well-loved items along to the Hopper Home Repair Café!

Cahoots Workshop is collaborating with MicroMill and Everybody Eats to help you get more life out of the things you already own.

From 9AM-2PM on both Sunday 27th and Monday 28th of September, our friendly repairers and volunteers can offer support with:
Small appliances
Electronics
Clothing and textiles
Bags
Small furniture
Knives or tools needing sharpening
and other items that could use some TLC.

We’ll do our best to repair what we can, and share advice for next steps when we can’t. Relax with excellent coffee and kai from Hopper Café while you wait, and leave with new skills, less waste, and hopefully a favourite item brought back to life.

Our friends Hannah & Liam from have an epic resource they've created called ' A zero waste shopping map'.

If you're new to refill stores or refilling in general you'll be able to find options closest to you 😊

Is your Plastic Free July goal to shop this way more?

Nga mihi for the hard work and research that went in to create this map 💚💚
