Greener Sudbury held a stand promoting its activities at the Green Fair, at St Peter’s Church, Sudbury, on Saturday 1 August.

We held fun competitions to identify a selection of herbs and wildflowers, with our botanical experts Jill Fisher and Janet Smith on hand to let participants know if they were on the right track.

‘Guess the weight of the marrow’ had two contestants close to the mark of 6lb 5oz.

A teacher took advantage of our schools resources – info sheets on how to build “toad abodes” and nectar bars for butterflies and other insects.

Meanwhile, Janet’s hedgerow jam and a selection of herbaceous perennials and herbs dug from her garden proved popular, and raised a few funds towards the greening of our town!
