Jamming and swishing

My allotment started to be productive early this year. So what has that got to do with Re-Wired, you might ask. Rhubarb makes lovely jam and chutney, and I also realised that I'd frozen more fruit last year than I've used, so I've been making jams and chutneys in order to create some space for this years harvest. So what has that got to do with Re-Wired? Well, tomorrow I'm taking jams & chutneys to Romsey Abbey to sell - mostly varieties that can't be bought in supermarkets. 
 
I''m also taking along some greetings cards that I've made from old (some very old) maps that had been thrown away.
Hopefully everything will go, otherwise people will be getting these cards and jars for their birthdays for a long, long time!

I think a Swishing party in Romsey could be a good way to get a few coppers into the coffer as well as being fun and so am wondering who might like to help run one of these events. Not sure if this will happen before the project this year, but there are still a couple of months to go.
