Based at the Pines Resource Recovery Park near Rolleston, the Reconnect Project is an innovative and ambitious project aimed at getting people thinking differently about waste materials, showcasing recovery of materials from the waste stream, and alternative options to landfill. A community hub incorporating waste diversion and minimisation, sustainability, inspiration to create a sense of excitement and passion for making meaningful change and a drive towards Ōhanga āmiomio - a circular economy.
The first stage of this project is complete and includes a relocated and expanded recycling and reusables drop-off area, under a canopy.
Our education centre ReDiscover is open!
Our community garden ReNourish is open!
The ReUse Shop is open!
Future potential stages include maker spaces, a tool library, a multi-purpose waste hub and a landscape supplies yard.
