got an email about this today, cool that our local freecycle group sent this email about a local event.
i might pop along and have a nose around and a look and listen at the composting clinc stand and see what they have to show.
the list has confirmed stalls and displays, not much gardening except the composting thing but might be some local produce on offer.
anyone else in this neck of the woods tempted to go, its FREE entry at least.
