Wednesday 26th June, 7:30pm, Church Hall in Oakington

A talk by Lou Ellis, SOW member, followed by a visit to her nearby garden. A great opportunity to find out how you can garden productively and help nature at the same time.

All welcome to SOW meetings, whether or not you live in Oakington & Westwick. It’s free but a donation of £1 would be much appreciated to cover costs.

Urgent – we need to borrow a gazebo!

The gazebo we usually borrow for Village Day (Saturday 29th June) has fallen through. We have great ideas for the stall to engage people about climate change but we need a gazebo to house it. Please has anyone got a gazebo they can lend on that date?

Upcoming Events

Restore Nature Now march, 22nd June, London

More details: Restore Nature Now. There are coaches going from Cambridge.

Pollination Festival, Saturday 22nd June, 9am – 4pm, Oakington Garden Centre

Together with the EAG (Environment Action Group) we will be running a stall focussing on Nature Recovery. Please come along! If you can spare an hour that day, it’s a good way to promote nature recovery (especially to gardeners!) and the work of both groups. sustainableow@gmail.com.

Village Day, Saturday 29th June, 12:30pm – 4:30pm ish, Oakington Recreation Ground

SOW’s stall will focus on climate change – what people are already doing about it and next steps they can take – with children’s activities too. Plus Nature Recovery (that will also be on the EAG stall next door, we’re working together.) Thank you to all who are helping with this stall – if anyone else can help do get in touch.

SOW meeting, 31st July, 7:30pm: Nature Walk

SOW/EAG member John Terry will lead a walk around local farmland.

No SOW meeting in August!
