The new window display went in last Wednesday with a bit of a fishy theme, and it just so happens that today is World Ocean Day – a happy coincidence! 🌊🐟

Considering we're always chatting about ways to cut down on plastic and waste; the timing couldn't have worked out much better. Pop by and have a look next time you're passing!

The shop refresh continues and the to-do list is finally getting shorter! 😊

Lovely has done such a fantastic job on the outside of the shop – it's looking rather dapper if I do say so myself. When you're caring for an old, listed building, every little improvement takes time, patience, and a fair bit of hard work, but it's so rewarding to see it all coming together.

Here are a few before-and-after photos to show just how much of a difference some TLC can make. What do you think of the transformation so far?

📢 Just a reminder that the Plastic Free Wenlock Clothes & Toy Swap is happening today at Holy Trinity Church! 👕🧸

If you've got good-quality clothes or toys looking for a new home, bring them along and see what treasures you can find in return. It's a great way to save money, reduce waste and support a more circular community. ♻️

And don't forget, there'll be tea and cake waiting for you too! ☕🍰

Come along for a swap, a chat and a slice of cake – we'd love to see you there.

If you're planning to make a batch of delicious homemade elderflower champagne, you'll be pleased to know that the citric acid is fully stocked up in the shop and ready for all your brewing adventures.

There's nothing quite like foraging fresh elderflowers on a sunny day and turning them into a sparkling summer drink. Whether you're a seasoned maker or trying it for the first time, don't forget this key ingredient before you head off picking!

Pop in and grab what you need — happy brewing! 🥂

Lovely and I are taking a little break, so stepping in for a couple of days is my brother-in-law Stuart 😊
Some of you may already know him as he has covered in the shop before and probably had a good chat with him too! As we don’t take time off very often, he might need a little patience while he finds his way around everything again.

The shop will be open:
Monday 8th June – 10am–2pm
Tuesday 9th June – 10am–2pm

Then it’ll be back to normal hours and me back in the shop on Thursday 11th 😊

Looking for a sustainable way to refresh the toy box or wardrobe? ♻️👕🧸

Plastic Free Wenlock is hosting a Clothes & Toy Swap at Holy Trinity Church on 6th June. Bring along good-quality clothes and toys you no longer need and swap them for something new-to-you!

There'll also be tea and cake available, making it the perfect opportunity for a catch-up while supporting a more sustainable community. 🌿☕

Pop the date in your diary and come along for a browse, a swap, and a slice of cake!

Lovely and I will be revamping the front of the shop over the coming weeks, as well as finally tackling the snag list inside that I’ve been putting off for far too long!

Lovely has already done an amazing job over the Bank Holiday stripping back the lintel and getting the first coats of undercoat on… phew, it was a warm one in that heat! 🥵🎨

Nothing too dramatic, just a little TLC to keep the old girl looking her best. If you spot ladders, paint tins, or the occasional bit of organised chaos, you'll know why!

Packed full of natural nutrients and trace minerals, this organic seaweed feed gives your plants a gentle boost without any harsh chemicals. Perfect for veg patches, flowers, herbs and houseplants alike!

And of course, you can refill your own container in store to cut down on waste, or grab one of our prefilled bottles if you don’t have anything suitable to bring along 😊

Heading away this half term? ✈️🚗

Perfect for holidays, camping trips, weekends away or keeping things simple at home too.

Well, if the weather is perking up like they say, it can only mean one thing… BBQs in the garden! ☀️🔥

And what better way to light your fire than with Desert Woods charcoal. A truly local charcoal made just the other side of Bridgnorth, using horses rather than heavy machinery to work in the woodland. That means bluebells, wood anemones and all the other beautiful woodland flora and fauna are far less disturbed than they would be by a huge honking great tractor tearing through 🌿🐴

Good for your BBQ, better for the woods 🌱
