Last month we had an amazing talk from Sam Mackay about the wonders of terrarium and offered us inspiration on how to make our own. With Easter just a week away, we have double the treats for our March meeting. First, we will be upcycling tin cans to make delightful Easter baskets, plant pots or container to brighten up your home. We will be providing some materials, but we would also ask you to bring any used tin cans you would like to decorate (which have been cleaned) and wrapping paper or napkins to decorate your tin. In addition, we will also be trying to find the best hot cross bun! There will be a few to try and judge so we can see which one comes out on top! We hope you can join us in for our Easter meeting, chat, and crafting. See you on Wednesday 27th March at 8pm.
Last month we had a great start to the year, hearing about the amazing work of Fare Share Southwest from Jenny. Following the meeting Jenny shared that our donation of £50 is enough to redistribute 200 meals worth of surplus food to those in need, which is really appreciated. They were also very touched by our food donations.This month, we are delighted to welcome Sam Mackay from Other World Terrariums & formerly of MILA plants. Sam is a lover of all things green and a supporter of small independent business who he stocks in The Ethical Gift Shop in SPARKS, as well as a champion of the Bristol LGBTQIA+ community. Sam will demonstrate how to make your very own terrarium, with lots of advice on the best plants to choose & how to care for them. Sam will also do a Houseplant Q&A for those of you who don’t know your Aspidistra from your Zamioculcas zamiifolia (we had to Google that one!) so get your green fingered questions ready! There will also be the opportunity to buy some plants so don’t forget your card! See you on Wednesday 28th February at 8pm.
