Green Wedmore

Green Wedmore are an umbrella organisation to co-ordinate, explore and encourage sustainable living. They are on a mission to make Wedmore a Zero Carbon village.

Through the work of Green Wedmore the village is already well on the way to reducing its carbon footprint, with its car charging points, community solar paddocks, freecycle days, repair café’s, community woodland, food forest and continuous campaigns.

The Food Forest Project

The health and wellbeing benefits instilled by being in natural spaces is huge for both body and mind. The Food Forest projects are healing spaces of harmony and peace. Communities can forage for their own food, or sit and be mindful in a safe environment away from the stresses and demands of modern life.

Worthington Woods Community Food Forest based in Wedmore, was their 3rd food forest project. This is a two acre plot providing much needed biodiversity and a natural space for our community.

Each of the different forest layers is not only producing food for our consumption, but food and habitat for wildlife. The reason that no chemical pesticides or fertilisers are required in a food forest, is that each layer holds habitat for a predator that feeds on the insect “pests”.

To support TFFP memberships start from £3.50pm or simply make a donation, and they'll put your money towards anything from organic seeds to buying land!

Bumble bee's Tots Clothing

Bumble Bee's Tots Clothing store is located in the center of Wedmore village, in The Borough Mall and personally my favourite village store.

At Bumble Bee's you'll find certified organic and sustainable childrens clothing and accessories by Piccalilly, Kite, Orange Tree, Toby Tiger, and Cotton Boulevard. As well as bamboo and recycled plastics - plate sets, travel mugs and drinking bottles.

Tracey is taking more steps to becomer greener and uses a smart metre, paper carrier bags, and all shop fittings are upclyced.
