Today (Sunday 3rd May, 1-4pm) in Springfield Park, the local Organic Fruit & Veg Box Scheme, Growing Communities, is hosting a free swap and sale for organic seeds, seedlings and young plants. Bring any extra plants you have and swap them too, whilst supping tea and eating cake for sale. Get a tour of their allotment site next to the park where they grow all the salad bags for their box scheme. I love the fact that my salad is grown in Hackney.
There's a fab cafe in the park, perfect for a late brekkie or lunch, serving up lots of salads and turkish breakfasts. [their website does not do it justice]
For those South of the borough, you can take a walk up the River Lea to get to the park, where a large marina of boats has it's own allotment and community.
