It’s staffed by volunteers from the committee and it’s a good place to find us if you need to speak to someone about your plot/the site. We sell seeds, fertilisers of various kinds, and garden sundries including black plastic mulch. See below for more details.

Unstocked things, that we can order
We periodically get a wood delivery from Oxford Fencing. We have to place a minimum order of £120 plus VAT, and cannot store anything bigger than 3.6m. If you need an item that the shop doesn’t have in stock, but don’t require it urgently, let us know on shop@ewaa.org.uk and we’ll try to order it for you.
If you want to build a 1.2m x 2.4m raised bed, you will need 2×3.6m border planks to cut, and 4 corner pieces. I use the (6″x2″) because they last longer (all wooden raised beds rot eventually), but you could use the cheaper 22mm Kickboard. I use Arris Rail, for my corners, as it’s better to screw across the grain of the wood, but some go end in (after a few years, the end in screws won’t hold).

When assembling wooden frames for outside, be aware if you use regular BZP wood screws, they will rust, and fail after a time. Hence I tend to use A2 or A4 stainless steel screws. I use 6x70mm screws (aka 12 x 2 3/4″): https://screwshop.co.uk/product/chipboard-screws-a2-stainless-steel/
Similarly, we can get wheelbarrows, larger waterbutts and numerous other things. Just ask.
