Need plants or supplies for your garden? Here’s the local solution.

Gardening is something we all focus on at this time of year, but its the time of year when we normally flock to our local garden centres to pick up those vital items that make our summer gardens all we want them to be.  With those garden centres closed, you may be wondering what to do. 

Never fear, help is at hand from Westholme Nurseries in Woore.  They are running on a skeleton staff but are trying their best to fulfil delivery of orders if you telephone them.  Having spoken to them they have asked that you telephone with a card payment, NOT email orders. Telephone Number is:  01630 647289  The offer is basic but helpful:

  • vegetable plants,
  • compost, canes etc
  • bird feed,
  • weedkiller/plant food etc from the shop.  
  • No Shrubs can be supplied but bedding plants should be available from the end of April. 
  • Minimum fee for an order will be £20 so if you only need a small amount we suggest you team up with a neighbour for delivery to one address.

The phone lines are open from 9am – 3pm each day, and if the line is engaged please leave your number and they will call you.  From 3- 5pm they are busy sorting out the orders for delivery.  If you are on Facebook follow this link to their page where there is a list of all the vegetable plants that you can order. 

Orders will be delivered to your door. 

Where’s a Dog Poo Fairy When You Need It

Perhaps the Dog Poo Fairy is in lockdown? Who Knows? Or maybe their isn’t such a thing as a Dog Poo Fairy!

Truth is dog poo is reappearing on the pavements and pathways in Adderley, particularly along Green Bank although the canal tow path is getting its fair share. There are dog poo bins! There’s one at the end of Green Bank and there’s one on Hawks Moor near the bridge and there’s another one on the bridge at the other end of the tow path walk. 

We can’t very well blame the users of the canal, because they’re not there so we have to look to ourselves. Is it fair that the vast majority of responsible dog owners clear up their mess and yet the odd one or two feel that it’s okay to leave the mess, on the path for somebody else to step in. Besides, it isn’t nice to look at, is it?

So can we ask that if it’s you could you please take a little bag with you, pick up the dog poo and put it in the bin provided. Thank you.

Be Inspired By Pentabus

This is a lovely idea.  Why not log on and watch Pentabus live recording of one of the dramas that they normally bring to rural village halls.  The first one ‘Here I Belong’

is a wonderful story about the decline of rural villages and one wonderful story of hope in adversity.  It will make you laugh and cry, but it will also make you think.  It was released last Friday  but you should be able to watch it still by following the link below.
 
Then every Friday at 2.00 pm Pentabus will release another one.  Go on give it a go.
Dear Friends,
 
To celebrate World Theatre Day and to help you through these uncertain times, we are going to release recordings of our past shows on our website and social media channels. They can be streamed for free. These will remain live for the next three months and will be released weekly on a Friday at 2pm for anyone to access.
 
The first production to be released will be Here I Belong by Matt Hartley on Friday 27 March, watch the trailer above and follow the link below to the live recording.

Our other shows to follow include Crossings by Deirdre Kinahan and Each Slow Dusk by Rory Mullarkey. The recordings will be accompanied by social media Q & A’s with cast and creative teams from the productions, details of which will be announced via social media.
 
We are extremely proud to have been the first company to live stream theatre directly from village halls into homes and community spaces across the world.
