Having the best time at Family Fun Day with lots of clothes, books and plants to share.

Family Fun day kicking off at the Cabra Festival. We’re here with our Swap Day - books, plants, clothes!

We know all of Cabra have lovely gardens. But our judges are on the hunt for the most biodiverse garden — one that’s beautiful, but also makes space for nature. They’ve got notebooks at the ready and the trusty cargo bike on hand. Good luck to all the entrants.
