Carrot-mob? In Wellington?? What the what???

08 April 2011 | Posted by julia in Uncategorized

No this doesn’t involve a mob of people throwing carrots. More a mob of happy people rewarding a business for being toooootally awesome and having great environmental & ethical practices.

A joycott rather than a boycott (love that word, thanks @Conscious Consumers).

Oooh badges yuuus! It's like the Girl Scouts

The past couple of weeks Conscious Consumers have been working with Wellingtonians to select THE best café location. All Conscious Consumers’ cafés were in the running to get mobbed – but there could only be one winner. Following the frantic bidding war started on 21 March 2011, the café that pledged to use the highest percentage of its take from the mob day to improve its energy efficiency won.

Take a bow Memphis Belle, for they pledged 201%!!

It’s going to be NZ’s first carrotmob, so head down there tomorrow Sat April 9th to see the entertainment and be part of the fun.

Follow Consious Consumers facebook page for more information, and if you’re the 42nd carrot-mobber you’ll also get one of our gorgeous tees too.

You could even wave/lob a few carrots if you fancy, but be safe kids. Be safe.
