Calling all gardeners or would be gardeners

Greening Chinnor's Seed & Plant Swap returns on Saturday 12th May. Once again we will be at The Friends of the Earth Green Living Event at Mill Lane Community Primary School from 10.00 am until 2.00 pm

This will be our 4th Seed & Plant Swap.

Last year we were delighted to swap 1000 plants. So this year, make it bigger! Bring your surplus plants and/or seeds to swap or make a small donation. Free sunflower growing contest for all of the mini gardeners. Get your tomato plants, courgettes and marrows, peppers, sweet corn, beans, brassicas,  lettuce and more – and try some new varieties.

Repair Cafe Launch

When: Saturday 21 April 2018 1:30 pm – 4:30 pm
Where: Village Hall, Church Rd, Chinnor OX39 4PQ

Greening Chinnor are delighted to announce their first Repair Café. The idea is to match amazing repairers with people who need stuff fixed … and all for FREE.

You can also pick up ideas on how to fix things yourself, if that interests you. We welcome:

✅ small portable household electrical appliances ✅ electronic items ✅ simple computer problems ✅ toys & mechanical items ✅ bicycles ✅ general bits and bobs 

Please bring items before 3:30 pm 

Bring along items small enough for one person to carry and please back up your data 

 

 Plus we have ‘Plumbing Demo Man’ who will show how it’s possible to make tap repairs with basic tools. 

The repairers are good and can fix many things but there are no guarantees. For further details about the event check out the FAQs on the Repair Café tab. Enquiries: greeningchinnor@gmail.com or call 07973 788339.

The event is entirely run by volunteers and anyone can pop in. As well as repairs you can drop in for a cuppa and homemade cake. The repairs are free but donations towards costs will be gratefully received. There may be some spares/consumables to purchase on the day.
