Sewing Bee: Sat 25 May 1-3pm

If planting’s not your thing, but you’re skilled with a needle or want to learn to sew and would like to join some like-minded buddies, come along to Friends of the Farm‘s next sewing bee in the barn at Ambury Farm.

We’ll be making veggie bags (fabric provided) to top up our Tote All Recall bag bins in the library and at St Vincent’s shop in Māngere Bridge to encourage people to take reusable bags when shopping and reduce the waste from single-use plastic or paper bags.

We’ll have at least one spare machine if you’d like to do some of your own sewing or would like to learn how to use a machine.

We’re friendly and welcoming, and will provide tea, coffee and home-made baking. If you arrive early, you might even get a sausage from the planting day! For our regulars, please note the earlier start and finish time!
