Hope

Hope is an aptly named fair trade and ethical shop, offering a variety of items made from recycled materials. Some of the more interesting creations included tumbler and wine glasses made from recycled bottles, and pieces of felt and old buttons used to decorate notebooks. Other items included Save the Planet guidebooks (£4), jewellery and handbags.
My purchase, though, was a tiny start to the herb garden I plan to have someday. It’s called «The Pocket Garden» — Organic mustard and cress grown right out of the sturdy silver bag they come in! I’m quite excited to get started on it — they grow… I mean, germinate… in 2 — 3 weeks. The sales clerk was quite helpful with advice on a successful pocket garden, as he’d tried it before.
This is one of my new favourite stops when passing through the Lanes. Check it out!
