Zero Waste Warehouse Market — Spring 2022

Overview

All of the kitchen staples, none of the excessive packaging: that's what's on offer at Mount Zero Olives' returning Zero Waste Warehouse Market.

MZO is teaming up with a stack of small businesses for another event dedicated to encouraging sustainable consumption, where you can shop a range of products without unnecessary plastic. Plus, for the extra organised shoppers among you, there'll be lots of products available to buy in bulk.

It's all going down from 9am–2pm on Saturday, October 29, at MZO's Sunshine West HQ. As the name suggests, you'll need to bring your own reusable containers with you to carry your haul. Bags, bottles, jars, buckets with lids — if you can put food in it, seal it and take it all home with you, it counts.

Here's what you'll be buying and stuffing into those containers: Mount Zero Olives' olives, of course, plus olive oils, pulses and grains. You can also nab some of Koji & Co's miso and shio koji pastes, Akimbo Bakery's slow fermented natural sourdough, loose-leaf teas from Common Garden Health, low-intervention wines courtesy of Noisy Ritual and ethical beans from Market Lane. The latter will be pouring complimentary filter coffee to caffeinate your morning's shopping adventures.

Koji & Co will also be running a hands-on Introduction to Miso and Koji workshop, for those keen to learn more about fermented foods and nab some new recipes for home. Tickets to the class are $30, available online.
