All about Weald allotments
Way back at the beginning of the first lockdown, Andy made us a bread shed so we could continue to offer food. Over the months it’s taken a bit of a battering, so when we were given some funding by AkzoNobel, our first thought was to make our bread shed more robust, and more hygienic.… Continue reading Weald’s wonderful bread shed revisited
At least as far as the community fridge is concerned – as today our shelves are stocked with amazing fresh fruit and veg from the Weald allotments. Tomorrow’s delivery recipients will be thrilled!
If you’re at the Weald shop today, we have some wonderful nursery grown apple trees looking for a new home. Donations welcomed – they’ll be used to fund the work of the Community Fridge – but not necessary. If you’d like an apple tree, come and collect one, they’re going fast!
Thanks to the amazing support of the RSPCA, we can now offer dog and cat food to people who visit the community fridge on a Thursday – so please feel free to mention if you have a pet that you’re struggling to feed. We also have our toy-box for little children, so if you’re collecting… Continue reading Community Fridge new offerings …
And we’ve got oodles of eggs! Come along and pick up some fresh veg (and some eggs) between 10:00 and 13:00 tomorrow, Thursday 4 March.

Before we get into some good news – would anybody like these lovely house-shaped shelves, donated by one of Weald’s fantastic volunteers last year? They’ve been a valuable part of our work, but our new stainless steel shelving is about to arrive and we need a new home for the white ones. The wooden ones… Continue reading Weald Community Fridge success story
