At the 2021 Ewaa AGM, no-one opted to stand for the post of Shop Officer. As this post is now vacant, the shop is closed until further notice.
Water to be turned off
Hi all, we will be turning off the water in the next few days to prevent burst pipes over the winter. Water butts will be filled first and the water will be back on in the spring

New padlocks – price change
Due to unforeseen costs, all new padlock keys will be £7.50 (payable by card only). One will be available to each main plotholder, with the option to purchase a second for a named joint plotholder. We look forward to seeing you on the 20th/21st November between 10 and 12, as previously stated. We will also be checking we have the right contact details recorded for everyone.

Annual EWAA Apple Pressing
Vote of thanks!
This weekend over 20 members joined the two morning work parties, to help clear the mass of bramble and brush that was threatening to take over our paths and car parks. Some people came on both days, so a particular thank-you goes to them, and to the brownie bakers, and to Tony & Dan for coordinating the task force.

APPLE PRESSING POSTPONED!
The juicing session cannot go ahead as planned this Saturday, but once the equipment has been sorted out we’ll arrange another date.
Apologies for the disappointment!
