It’s Wallington Farmers’ Market this Saturday and I’m really looking forward to being back.

After all the grey weather lately, it feels good to get outside, wander around the stalls, chat to the producers and take everything in.

There is something really uplifting about a market morning, fresh air, good conversations and so many lovely local produce in one place.

The forecast is dry, let’s hope it stays that way. It will be a bit colder though, with temperatures dropping to around 3 degrees, so definitely wrap up warm.

I’ll be there with Just Be Natural - natural skincare and aromatherapy blends.

And if Mother’s Day is still on your to-do list, I’ll have some ready-wrapped gift ideas to make things simple.

If you’d like to collect an order at the market just place it online and choose Click & Collect at Wallington Farmers’ Market.

Hope to see some familiar faces and meet some new ones too.

With Mother's Day just the next day, it’s the perfect opportunity to find a gift that feels a little bit magical. Perhaps artisan chocolates, enchanting aromatherapy skincare, handmade jewellery, beautiful craft gifts, softly glowing scented candles… or even a bottle of something special for her to enjoy.

As evening falls in Carshalton, join us this Friday 27th Feb 7.30pm to explore the story of a river that has shaped our community for centuries. What’s really happening to the River Wandle — and why should we care?

As evening falls over Carshalton and the light begins to soften, Surrey Organic Gardeners invite you to gather for a special exploration of one of our most remarkable local treasures.

🌿 Friday 27th February – 7.30pm
(Arrive from 7.15pm)
📍 Garden Hall, The Lodge, Honeywood Walk, Carshalton SM5 3NX
🎟 £4 on the door (cash or card) – including tea, coffee and biscuits
Open to all – simply turn up.

On this particular Friday evening, our focus turns to the quiet, persistent force that flows through our landscape: the River Wandle.

In “Wandle: River at Risk”, Bobby Dean introduces and presents his documentary exploring the river’s rich history, the challenges it now faces, and the conservation efforts working to secure its future.

For centuries, the Wandle has shaped industry, supported wildlife, and connected communities. Yet today, like so many natural habitats, it faces mounting pressures from pollution and environmental strain.

This evening offers more than a film. It is an opportunity to understand the delicate balance of a living river — and to discuss the measures being taken, and those still needed, to protect it. There will be time for questions, conversation, and shared reflection.

Join us on Friday 27th February.
Discover the story of a river.
And consider the role we all play in its survival. 🌊

There are chocolates too, wrapped in promise. Small bottles of fragrant oils and creams. Thoughtful Fair Trade treasures waiting to be chosen. And a neat parade of well-loved tools, each with a story still to tell....
