• OrganicLea open day at Hawkwood:
  Sunday 26th February 12:00 pm-4:00 pm

  Open Days at Organiclea’s growing site – always the last Sunday of the month, 12-4pm with a free skill-share, sagra, work opportunity and drop-in learning. General Format for our open days: - There is always a group gardening activity to participate in – and learn more about how we grow food at our site, 12-4pm - Throughout the day, every month we try to celebrate a specific preparation of a different seasonal vegetable – our very own ‘sagra’ calendar. ‘Sagra’ can be a celebration of a certain dish or product, of a vegetable or fruit, a wine, a type of preparation. In this way abundance of a certain crop at our growing site is celebrated and shared! - A site tour takes place at a designated time in the afternoon. - Timetabled skill-share from 2-3pm. The day runs from 12-4pm – drop by at anytime or stay for the day – we break for lunch between 1.30-2pm ... bring a packed lunch and join us.

• Walthamstow Family Bike Club Ride:
  Sunday 11th March 1:00 pm-5:00 pm

  Join us for a fun, slow & sociable ride around some of the green spaces in Waltham Forest. Meet at 1pm at Orford Road/Church Lane junction E17 (next to the old postbox near St. Mary’s Church - see map below); we aim to get back no later than 5pm. We usually stop along the way for a picnic snack, so apart from a bicycle and any children you can round up, bring some water and something to eat. We usually seek a respectably long refreshment break at a cafe as long as the majority are in favour (they always have been so far!). The maximum distance we have ever done is 15 miles for the round trip, but as its tailored to the abilities of those who turn up, it can be considerably shorter. Everyone is welcome. This event is free.
