SWISH - Swap don't Shop!

Do you have clothes in your wardrobe you've worn once and may never wear again? That outfit you bought that's now collecting dust? Would you love some different clothes in your wardrobe but care about sustainable fashion? Do you fancy a night out with your friends? Then this is the perfect evening for you!

This is a fun clothes swap event where you donate good quality clothes you no longer need and come away with a new outfit. If you would like to contribute a small donation of £3 towards refreshments, this can be payable on the night. Brilliant!

650 Saplings planted in Wimborne SANGs

This winter by the end of March,  Trees for Wimborne, a subgroup of Wilding Wimborne, will have planted 650 trees in the Dogdean and Stourview SANGs of Wimborne.  Most were provided by the Woodland Trust, some bought thanks to funding by Dorset Council and the Dorset Community Foundation and some provided by individuals. Then, over the winter, fifty or so volunteers have prepared the ground, planted and continued to care for the saplings, so furthering Trees for Wimborne’s vision for increasing the tree cover in the area.

Plant Swap @ Walford Mill

Wilding Wimborne is partnering with Walford Mill to bring you a plant-swap opportunity.  We all tend to plant too many seeds and wonder what to do with the extra that germinate.  Or we split an established plant and don't want to throw away the spare root.

Come to Walford Mill and take advantage of the plants on offer:  you can leave any plants that you don't need and take some that you do!

Seedy Collection

Wilding Wimborne wants to encourage people to grow their own flowers, fruit and vegetables - all in a sustainable way.

Come to the Fair Ground Shop in the Cornmarket, collect some seeds - and get sowing.

A small donation is suggested so we can self-fund for future years.
