CropSwap Merrilands re-starts
Hi everybody Crop Swap Merrilands re-starts on the 1st August after it's enforced break due to Covid-19
What's a Crop Swap I hear you ask?
In Crop Swap, backyard gardeners meet on a regular basis to share locally grown and homemade food, exchange gardening knowledge and build relationships. Crop Swaps are beneficial not only for the natural environment, they are a space to connect, enhance the quality of life for the individual and help build well connected communities that are based on generosity and fairness.
We meet on the first Saturday of the month at Merrilands Domain Hall at 4-5pm, come along with any garden produce surplus, fruit, veg, seedlings, etc, or home baking, jams, pickles etc and swap them for items other swappers have brought. A meet begins with finding a space on a table to add your items, have a mooch around to see what everyone else has brought, have a chat to like minded people, gain or impart some greenfingered knowledge to others. at 4:30 we ring the bell and swapping begins, have a walk around, take a bit of what you fancy, being mindfull that some people cannot move as fast as others.
We ask for a gold coin donation to help cover the cost of hiring the hall.
We have an email list which sends out a reminder the week before the event, if you would like to be included on this list please email me at russ.wendy.nz@gmail.com
