Seed Swap Event 2023 Update

Posted on 03 January 2023

A few people have asked us when our Seed Swap event is going to be. Due to reducing capacity, both in terms of time, energy and money, we have decided to just do it as part of the regular Sustainable Market and have a couple of stalls for our seeds and plants to swap or buy.

So please do package up any seeds you may have saved, clearly marking them with what they are, and when they were saved and tuck them safely away ready for swapping at this event, which will be on Sunday 5th March from 9.30am – 1.30pm. More details nearer the time.

Another very busy Repair Cafe on Saturday. Our wonderful repairers never fail to amaze us by mending things that they've been told cannot be mended, or have been quoted astronomic sums for a potential repair, when it actually takes 20 minutes to sort it out!

Sadly it's not possible to mend everything that's brought in but it's always worth coming along to check stuff out. Please always think before you throw!

Great service for the community as well as the environment! 👏🏻

Well done everyone

Really good group at Climate Resilience Centre Worthing - CREW on Saturday for our workshop about practical ways to reduce flood risk and pollution from surface water run off. Lisa and I covered making rain gardens and storm water planters to slow the flow, Ryan shared details of using harvested rainwater to flush a loo and Vernon explained how to build soakaways and add one-way valves to drains to prevent sewage water backing up into properties during flooding. See Transition Town Worthing CIC website Resources for handouts and a You Tube film on building rain gardens. And pop into CREW to add any locations of known flood risk spots to a flood risk map of Worthing and Lancing. ... See MoreSee Less

Busy month at our 2 community allotments, mending, planting, tidying and getting it all ready for spring planting. Yesterday we saw a baby slow worm, a peacock butterfly and the robins were around the whole time. ... See MoreSee Less

What a joy it is to run a repair cafe - there are some wonderful stories to share and it's so good to know that you are not only saving something from being dumped, but you are also bringing happiness into someone's life when their much treasured possessions are brought back to life. Do take a look through these photos and you will see what I mean. Our team of repairers are so talented - willing to try to fix most things and are really kind, helpful and good fun - what more could we wish for. ... See MoreSee Less
