As always we are looking for volunteers who would like to get involved in either mending things or to help organise and facilitate the Repair Cafe. We have lots of different roles and different types of involvement. If you want to find out more, please feel free to contact me.

How to find the orchard: Head up Keen's Lane, Chinnor, cross the railway crossing and the orchard is directly on the right hand side. The working parties are to help regenerate and restore the ancient orchard and to explore the social history of the site. Bring some tools if you have them and a cup so you can have some refreshments.

Station Road Community Planters


There has been an amazing crop of tomatoes in the Station Road Community planters. Help yourselves -  they are for picking. 

We were pleasantly surprised to see that our three planters have been joined by three siblings. If the person(s) who built and stocked them could contact Greening Chinnor (greeningchinnor@gmail.com) then we can make sure that next year we can coordinate our joint efforts. 

















The autumn and winter restocking will take place at the end of October.
