Thanks for all of you who came last Saturday to buy potatoes, beans, peas, onions and garlic. It was a great morning, though we still have a lot of maincrop potatoes and onions if anyone wants them or knows who might like a load. They are at Oakenclough for collection Monday mornings from 10am, or Wednesday & Friday afternoons, or Sunday 25th Feb from 2pm.
Lindow Moss
We had an amazing launch of Friends of Lindow Moss last Saturday afternoon; did you come along? It was good to have such a fantastic turn out, including our MP and the Liberal Democrat candidate there to show support. There were some brilliant lectures.

If anyone would like to join Andrew and others at Unico Lounge Grove Street, to eat together from around 17.45, they would be very welcome - good for a chat and unwind, just turn up.
This month's meeting will consist of a short annual report and questions, and a talk from Phil Frodsham of Transition New Mills about ideas for what might happen for the national Transition Network.
