Trumpington Seedy Sunday is on 28th January 2024!
This event is an opportunity to bring and swap self-saved seeds, exchange other surplus seeds and plants, or take in exchange for a small donation of whatever you can afford. Please do not worry if you don’t have any spare seeds as there are always plenty to go around.
You will also find refreshments and cakes, stalls including seed merchants, artisan producers and community groups, and other gardeners excitedly planning their new growing season.
Please bring cash for the entrance fee and any purchases or donations that you might wish to make.
Trumpington Seedy Sunday has run annually since 2006, mostly at the village hall but last year we moved to Trumpington Pavilion. This venue worked well with our marquee on the patio providing extra covered space, so we are returning in 2024. Road access from the High Street is via Anstey Way (opposite the Shell garage). Cycle routes from Cambridge are Trumpington Road or the Busway (exit near Foster Road stop).
Entry is £2 (cash only) for adults, children free.

Hedge Cutting 2024 part 1
2024-10-12 10:00 - 12:00 | Trading Hut, Trumpington Allotment Society, Foster Road, Cambridge, United Kingdom
We will prune the allotments boundary hedge.
Members are requested to help with collecting up the prunings, clearing litter and keeping the shared use path safe while we work.
Rather than burning the prunings, we will weave them into the hedges along the cycleway and along the busway cutting. This will thicken the hedge and the prunings will gradually decompose.
Hedgecutting work party
This work is scheduled after the bird nesting season.
