10am - 3pm: on the Garden Stage

This harvest time Wild Hive Collective will be 'popping up' with our Glut Hub stall - to enable local residents to bring and swap any surplus fruit, veg, plants, seeds or local growing advice that they'd like to share.

Donations welcome if you’re not swapping to support Wild Hive Collective’s Changemaker activities and projects aiming to engage, enthuse and enable thriving Green and Growing communities in the Eastleigh area.

10am - 3pm: on the Garden Stage

Wild Hive Collective will be offering a selection of paper-based crafts to help capture your ‘Imaginings for a Greener, Brighter Future’ for our Wishing Tree. No wishes are too radical in our quest to get your wildest wishes for nature and future generations heard!

This activity is inspired by Transition Network Founder, Rob Hopkins’, ‘From What If to What Next?’ imaginative approach to manifesting change: https://www.robhopkins.net/podcast/

10am - 3pm: on the Garden Stage

Wild Hive Collective are passionate about helping more people to grow their own healthy food sustainably for themselves and for wildlife.
