Outdoor Community Oven: Support Local Project with Freshly Baked Goods
In October 2024, we hosted a community bread bake fundraiser at our outdoor clay oven to support Toilet Twinning, a charity that helps provide clean water, basic toilets, and hygiene education to communities in need. Thanks to the generosity of our volunteers and donors, we raised £60 for the cause. As a result, our composting loo at Meadow Orchard is now twinned with a toilet in Nepal! Visit our loo shed to see the certificate proudly displayed. Join us for future events and help support important global initiatives!
