You know, its a wonderful thing to have a pub in your own village these days.  Especially when your village is, well, lets face it, more of a blink!

Well we are very lucky to have a beautiful 18th Century pub and B&B on our doorstep, and, it is the home of our WGW Knit & Natter Club which meets every Saturday, in the Barleycorn's 'Cwtch' to spin some yarns, tell some tales and have a good old gossip whilst working on our latest woolly projects.

So then, if you are a local, or you are just visiting the Salisbury Plain area for business or pleasure make sure that you don't forget to visit this great British pub!

It doesn't matter whether you have a large garden or a small one, this wonderful English company has the solution for you! 

I do not have my own green house and cultivate most of my seedlings in my dining room during the winter.  Everything else I purchase from the Acqua Garden, and I have a monthly subscription for vegetable plants. 

 The Acqua Garden was founded by CEO Jonathan Martin, who worked as an international corporate lawyer for over 30 years. 

Always a keen gardener and having grown up in the countryside, Jonathan decided to try something completely different but related to the things he had always loved. He became an inventor and an entrepreneur - and set about building the business, drawing on his experience and resources, and driven by his vision. 

This has led the Acqua and its first product: The Acqua Garden - vertical tower growing solutions for people with very limited space. The  product that was designed and developed by Jonathan himself, and aimed at helping us on so many levels.  

 It is 

 Jonathan's belief that we can all make a difference by how we live and what we eat.

Please pay Jonathan and the team a visit, and support this wonderful, British business. 

Wiltshire Green Woollies supports Alabaré, taking part in its 'Big Sleep' at Salisbury Cathedral in 2022 and other events.   Alabaré is a charity supporting vulnerable, homeless and marginalised people, helping  them transform their lives, providing accommodation and gain the skills, confidence and opportunities to live a fulfilled life.

Alabaré was founded in 1991 by Rev John Proctor and his wife Alicia after they befriended and offered a home to a series of people in crisis. They founded a new charity, Alabaré and following a year of fundraising, their first home, Barnabas House in Salisbury, was opened.

Those of us who live in the countryside need to ensure that our chimneys, log-burners and stoves are kept in tip-top condition.  We use Southern Chimney Services for all our needs and cannot recommend this company, run by Pete Mulingani, highly enough! 

 Southern Chimney Services was established in 2011 by Pete Mulingani having completed 24 years service in the British Army, leaving as a Colour Sergeant in the Infantry.  

Southern Chimney Services is based in Burbage and Pete provides coverage across Salisbury Plain and the towns and villages surrounding it.

Don't leave it 'til the Autumn, get your chimney sparkling now!  

Oor Patts Glasgow is one of my favourite artists and creates wonderful images based on Scottish life.  I recently purchased some Christmas cards from Patt and he very kindly drew a pen and ink sketch of me knitting a new woolley creation which you can see on our home page!  He has captured me to perfection...
