Minimise Christmas Food Waste Consider Conscious Consumption

3

In 2022, we launched our inaugural Eco Gift Guide. We’re proud to say we’ve expanded our focus this year to include Responsible businesses. While we remain passionate about the environment and sustainability, we also know there are many ways a business can do ‘better.’

Conscious consumption is about engaging in the economy with more awareness of how your choices impact the environment and society as a whole. We’re embracing this movement in every way.

While many businesses found the post-pandemic period challenging, things have been even more dire this year for many.

According to the ABS, In the four years between June 2019 and June 2023, 35 per cent of all Australian businesses closed their doors for good. Small businesses are at an even greater risk of collapse.

While we don’t want to be doom and gloom, particularly during what is meant to be the festive season, we want to encourage everyone who reads this Guide to embrace Responsible businesses. Think about supporting small and locally made businesses wherever possible, not just during the holiday season but throughout the whole year.

We’ve carefully curated our Responsible Gift Guide to feature 50 incredible businesses. There is a helpful legend on the following page to help you determine the practices of each business and how they might align with your own beliefs and values.

We would like to extend a thank you to all of the wonderful businesses featured in the Responsible Gift Guide. We thank you for the work you do and for embracing our Guide.

Oraco’s Top Picks for the Holidays With a gorgeous Gift Guide packed with amazing offers from an array of a range Responsible businesses, it can be hard to know where to start your shopping!

We’ve gathered our favourites, and it seems most of us have found something we want for ourselves instead of gifts for someone else!

Jessica Comms Director “I’ll be stocking up on seeds from The Little Growers for my son to plant in our veggie patch and some of the gorgeous bright paints from All the Colours.”

Leanne Creative Director “I adore ZONE by Lydia for their commitment to slow fashion. Their sustainable hemp clothing lasts and the designs are timeless. Their yoga mats are also stunning and the essential oil trio would be a great stocking filler!

Grums’ vegan and organic skincare will also be on my shopping list! ” Ella Social Media & Content Creator “​​The Good Dogs Cookie Club cookies will be on my to-shop list this year. Just because the little floofers can’t eat Mum’s famous pavlova doesn’t mean they don’t deserve some holiday indulgence too!”

Sunday Sips cocktail rimmers are on my holiday wishlist because summer calls for poolside margaritas (and they are made from locally sourced ingredients!).”

Ellie Strategy Manager - Brand “Blue House Bunches have some gorgeous-looking flowers - fresh flowers are one of my favourite purchases as they instantly brighten any home.”

“A Beautiful Weirdo is going to be my one-stop-shop for all the glitter I need to see Taylor Swift next year - very keen to shop from there!”

Maisie Social Media Coordinator “BJ’s PJ’s have caught my eye because I can never say no to new comfies! Their organic cotton pyjamas will be essential to sleep in when summer gets hot.”

Sophie Art Director / Designer “Flowers and candles are my go-to gifts! Who doesn’t like flowers and candles? They are the perfect gift because many of us don’t often buy them for ourselves, so my picks are Sollevato candles - I love the hilarious messages and Blue House Bunches. I also love Textures by Tegan - her artworks are beautiful!”

Steph Art Director / Designer “My pick is This on Paper. I love giving beautifully wrapped gifts and the hand-drawn illustrations on This on Papers products are absolutely stunning!”

Kelsey Strategy Manager - PR “I think Peninsula Eve candles could be a great present this Christmas as they have a sentimental element to them being themed by your favourite local areas.

I might also have to check out Plow Surf Co for the surfers in the family - fun designs, sun safety and eco-friendly!”

6 Fashion Facts You Need to Know If you’re a fashion lover striving to adopt a more sustainable approach to your wardrobe, we’ve got some facts for you to consider.

1. The average lifespan of a piece of clothing is three years.

2. The average person only wears 20 per cent of their clothes 80 per cent of the time.

3. Pretty much every textile is recyclable, but not much of it is actually recycled.

4. The textile sector still represents 10-20% of pesticide use globally.

5. The fashion industry is one of the leaders in pollution, making up about 10% of the carbon emissions leaking into the environment.

6. Clothing production is the third biggest manufacturing industry after the automotive and technology industries. Textile production contributes more to climate change than international aviation and shipping combined.

Minimise Christmas Food Waste Over 7.3 million tonnes of food is wasted in Australia every year - which equates to nearly 300kgs of food per person per year.

try to purchase from local grocers. Think practically about the amount of food people can consume.

Reducing food waste could save the average Aussie family up to $3,800 per year! Tie this in with a season of abundance and overindulgence and, unsurprisingly, food waste is even higher over the celebratory season.

When it comes to leftovers, encourage your visitors to bring their own airtight containers so they can take some leftovers. We also suggest using labels to note down the day meals were made so you can easily determine when something needs to be eaten by.

Planning ahead is the best thing you can do to reduce food waste. Think about who you’re cooking for or what you have to bring, As well as considering what you already have on hand and what you need to purchase. If you need to buy groceries,

If your experience is anything like ours your celebrations are likely to go on for days.

Don’t be afraid to take leftovers to your next location. People will appreciate the effort and together, you can reduce food wastage and save costs.

A brewed cup of coffee contains less than 1% of the nutrients from the beans it is brewed on. This means that more than 99% of the nutrients remain in the grounds making them the ideal active ingredient to base our products

Gardening Australia’s Hannah Moloney leads a home-grown food revolution with new book If you’ve ever wanted to try your hand at growing your own food, this is your sign. Hannah Moloney’s new book, Good Life Growing, is the perfect present this Christmas.

Full of tried and tested solutions, inspirational ideas, and multiple methods for everything from making compost to creating an edible forest, this book is like having Hannah by your side.

“Growing our own fruit and veg is one of the most tangible ways we can reclaim our food culture, prepare ourselves for the climate crisis, and reduce our carbon footprint,” says Hannah.

“My new book is focused on productive gardening that is cost-effective and accessible, regardless of your bank balance or postcode. It covers all the practical ground you need to create healthy gardens, well-fed bellies, dirty hands, and fired-up hearts.”

Responsible Holiday Gift Guide / 2023

If you have never had the chance to grow food, knowing where to start can be a little daunting. Hannah says, “You can’t go wrong with some hardy herbs like rosemary, oregano, and thyme, which will thrive in pots or a large garden. Followed by leafy greens and fresh sprouts on your kitchen bench these are quick to grow and a million times tastier than most greens from the local shops. Growing both herbs and greens is also super economical as they’re often pricey at the shops and never as good a quality as the ones you’ll grow yourself.”

We asked Hannah whether it’s worth involving the kids in your edible garden.

“When it comes to edible gardening, kids are naturals and can very quickly wrap their heads, hearts, and hands around how to grow food. They are especially fantastic at harvesting and eating food! It gives them so much joy and pride to be connected to where their food comes from. The more we can get them out there, the better.”

Aside from Hannah’s new book, she suggested gifting the budding gardener “some seeds to get you started and a compost system to make sure you’re nourishing soil health” this Christmas.

Keep the Kids Entertained Over the Holidays The holidays are filled with anticipation and excitement, and for many, it involves some form of travel. If you’re moving around with small children, keeping them entertained can be challenging. We’ve put some entertaining suggestions below.

1. Scribble Mat: Featured in this Guide, the Scribble Mat fits perfectly into handbags and car doors. Founder Emma King says, “We always keep one in the car for out and about, and the mini mats fit plane tray tables perfectly.”

3. Magnetic Tangram: Tangrams are a realm of endless possibilities, challenging kids to explore and create with a variety of wooden shapes. This one from Elegantor is magnetic and non-toxic.

2. Birde Players: Birde players allow children to safely learn and play music and audiobooks independently. Birde has a specially developed content platform to ensure a safe and fun way for children to learn through play.

Once you’re finished with these toys, consider gifting them to someone on need or selling them through a secondhand marketplace.
