Welcome

The Wedmore Green Group (WGG) is an umbrella organisation to coordinate, explore and encourage sustainable living as it could apply in practical terms to Wedmore and the surrounding villages.

With man-made climate change now a virtual certainty as well as the un-sustainable extraction of raw materials and water this community has three broad choices,

Rely on central and local government to legislate mankind and this planet out of trouble
Ignore all the scientists and evidence and continue to overuse energy, refuse to recycle, fly at a whim to the closest destinations and eat strawberries from Egypt in January.
Work together as a community to find ways to reduce our environmental impact.

We like option three; if you’d like to find out more have a look around our website.

Thanks

Latest News: 11th Freecycle Day a huge success!

A sunny Sunday in Wedmore and a highly successful 11th Freecycle Day saw over 45 cars bringing their unwanted goodies for others to collect.

For just a couple of hours locals poured into the car park with all manner of interesting bits and bobs ready to give away. This year we had a rather grand sofa, some goal posts and even a conservatory with new homes. More mundane items included jigsaws, cat baskets, old shoes and flower pots.

No money changed hands and nothing was left behind except a warm satisfied glow and a few new friends made.

If you couldn’t make it on the day or if you did but found more stuff to give away please please go online to the Freecycle website at http://groups.freecycle.org/wedmorefreecycle/posts/all and carry on Freecycling.
