Our Waltham Forest & Redbridge Green Party held its Green Fair on Saturday 14th November 2009 from 11:00 - 15;00. Well known to traditionalists the Green Bazaar was held at the United Reform Church, Wanstead.
-
A late change of date due to a double booking by the church and terrible weather, meant that attendance at the event was not as good as previous years. However, with a lot of hard work and endeavour the event raised £387.00 close to the figures of previous years - it should be noted that £175 of this was from a return of the Church hire costs - due to the late change of dates.
The event was very enriching with lots of Environmental information stalls, a Traidcraft stall, Bric a Brac Home made Jams and chutneys of which my wife and I bought several, after a taste survey that left us tantalised and lots more!

If you did not attend this year do keep your eyes and ears open for next years event.
