Chairs for sale - Drop in 12 - 1pm on Sunday... 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐜𝐑𝐚𝐒𝐫𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐨π₯𝐝.....?

The time has come for members of Holy Cross to say goodbye to our lovely old wooden chairs. They have been in the church as long as anyone can remember and most likely since the church was first opened in 1913. They've been in constant use, and some are no longer in great condition, but they are all for sale.

If you would like to have your own piece of our history, then you are welcome to call by the church on Thursday (10th) in the morning between 11 and 12 noon, Sunday 13th between 12 noon and 1pm or Tuesday (15th) in the evening between 6.30 and 7.30pm to select and reserve one or 2 or as many as you might like. Prices range from Β£20 - Β£15 - Β£10 - Β£5 dependent on condition, with a few of the best still available at Β£30. Chairs will be ready for pick up before the end of the month – we need to coordinate with the arrival of the new (to us) chairs, so would be grateful if you can put off collecting them until then if at all possible.

The Little Seeds garden gifted us (and the bees) with fruit and veg this week πŸ™‚ We then tried out 'tataki-zome' - making botanical prints on fabric by hammering the petals and leaves. We experimented with brambles and tiny potatoes too! Some beautiful results, and lots of fun!

Little Seeds continues to flourish. We've had several weeks of harvesting beautiful flowers, making beautiful crafts, picking and eating peas from the pod, and approaching digging time for our potatoes! And of course, lots of watering...
