We are a community volunteer group based in our own bright, airy space and garden at Sandford-on-Thames' Village Hall. We run a cafe, convenient shop & community activities.
We offer a safe, friendly space to shop for a wide range of fresh fruit & veg, bread, eggs, meat, dairy and lots more. We buy from lots of local suppliers as well as stocking bigger brands. We have a great line of refills from Oxford-based SESI.
