Countdown is on for Hawkes Bays Largest Ever Eco Show Tipped to be a Crowd Pleaser

15th May 2012

Jade Promotions, the countrys largest provider of home, garden and lifestyle events is gearing up for the Hawkes Bay Better Home & Living Show being held at Pettigrew Arena, Taradale, in just ten days.

Show organisers have hand- picked 100 exhibitors that will be showcasing eco-friendly products & wares especially for visitors interested in improving the health and wellbeing of their family through better housing, sustainable living, better food and transport. The show, trialled and launched three years ago, in the home town of Jade Promotions is the brainchild of co-owner Daniel Joll.

It has proved so popular, that this year we are hosting the show over three days now including Friday 25th, Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th May 2012. It has four distinct sections Better Homes, Better Gardens, Better Bodies and now a brand new section Better Transport. We are really excited about Hawkes Bay businesses getting behind us this year and we provide an economic boost to the region by employing locals prior, during and after the show.

It follows hot on the heels of a very successful launch of the same show in Wellington where we filled the Westpac Stadium and more than 10,700 people flooded through the doors.

We realise that Hawkes Bay numbers will be smaller reflecting the region but latest figures show despite economic downturn home-owners are still surging ahead with either renovating or building and local people take pride in their gardens and bodies so this show is tipped to please garden enthusiasts and people looking for healthier lifestyles, he said.

This year Havelock North based qualified landscape architect and successful author Janet Luke will wow garden lovers with an amazing display on offer which is all about green urban living.

Ever heard of a gutter garden, upside down bucket garden or a vertical wall garden, not to mention a top bar beehive?

Whether you have acres to spread out on or just a small patio area there is something for everyone at this show and Janet will showcase Japanese quail in a moveable hutch, these birds lay an egg-a-day and are great for a balcony when there is just no room for chooks.
