Feilding Repair CAFE
Our first event last Saturday is done and dusted - and WHAT A BLAST - so many people visited. 37 jobs were assessed with 12 of these being fixed and another 14 starting the repair journey. The comradery of our skilled problem solving experts was brilliant as was the baking. Clock chimes were restored, seams stitched, sleeves hemmed, picture frames mended, fans again useful, chair legs restored and clock hands moving again, One memorable job was a leather horse ornament being brought in for information on restoration and now starting a journey to having a brass stand made. A big THANK YOU to all the volunteers , supporters and visitors who shared their mending problems.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
