Swap plants, clothes and games at this Sustainable Sunday coffee event

Are your houseplants looking a bit peaky?
Wannabe gardeners can trade plants and cuttings for new varieties this weekend at Sustainable Sunday, a chill afternoon of eco-friendly activities at The Scrypt café on Tobin Street.
Organised by Cork Zero Wast, a group of volunteers working to make Cork a more sustainable city, the event on Sunday, August 11th kicks off at 11.30am until 2pm, with loads of fun stuff planned.
There’s a Sustainable Fashion talk at 12.30pm, a ‘Make Your Own Cosmetics’ demo at 1pm and a talk on reducing food waste at 1.45pm.
Attendees are encouraged to bring a bag for swaps and goodies and a keep-cup to use at the café.
You can register here and entry is free. Here’s the lowdown on what’s happening:
