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.

Amanda Waring has agreed to lead a Solstice celebration at Coast Cafe on Weds. 21st December and we will be there from 5.30-8pm if any of you would like to join us during that time.

If you’d like to come, there will be a fire pit so please bring some wood to put on the fire if you can.

The ceremony will be at 6.30pm and last around 20 minutes. Coast will be open for people to purchase hot soup and a roll as well as drinks and light snacks from 5.30pm, and they have agreed to extend opening hours until 9pm if anyone wants to stick around for a while after the fire. We are hoping we might have a couple of surprises as well, but still trying to organise that.

We’ll post the event on the home page of our website and also on our Facebook group if you want to check anything on the day or just before. If the weather is really bad, it will still go ahead as we can be inside the cafe but may have to play how we do the ceremony a bit by ear if it’s raining hard.

Sunday 25th September, Field Place Manor House, Barns and Grounds – just off The Boulevard, Worthing BN13 1NP – 10.30am-4pm

After a year of planning and organising, we have finally arrived at a point when all the stall layouts are done (for both wet and dry scenarios, but we do so hope it will be dry as it’s so much nicer) and the workshop, talk and entertainment programme is complete (we hope!). Please see copy of rough draft – which will give you some idea of what to expect on the day.

We do hope you can come along to this delightful, fun filled family event – showcasing local green groups, performers, artists, makers and producers. There will be street food and drink available onsite and a very wide range of things to do for all ages. If there is a particular workshop you’d like to take part in, you might like to arrive fairly early to get your name down for it, as these could prove to be very popular. We hope to see you there!
