Christmas? Birthdays? Looking for something unusual? We have gifts for children . . . 

And plenty of delicious treats for Christmas (or any other time!)

​

​We have original and beautiful gifts for adults,
including a range of local, hand-made pottery:
​vases, mugs and bowls in different designs.

​

We support local artists - their original artwork is displayed in the café and is for sale. There is a waiting list for artists to show their work so the pictures on display change on a regular basis. 

​If you are interested in displaying your work, you are welcome to get in touch. 

​rCUPs are also great, so much so they were voted best buy for reusable coffee cups (Which, November 2018).

rCUPs are the world's first reusable coffee cups and travel mugs made from recycled paper coffee cups. The cup is 100% leak proof, dishwasher safe and features '360 drinking', so no more sipping through a hole!

Available in a range of different colours.

​Chilly bottles are great presents for young and not-so-young. The advanced wall technology keeps hot drinks hot for about ​12 hours and cold drinks cold for about 24 hours.

Available in different colours and designs and in different sizes.


​

Eco-bricking is becoming a popular way to remove plastic from the environment by forcing single-use waste plastic into plastic bottles which are then used as bricks in building projects. Give someone an original but useful gift of a 'poking' stick to push that pesky waste plastic down.

Hand-made in Newbury from pre-used wood.

And for those who would prefer to have their beeswax wraps ready-made, these packs are available in different designs. Made locally.

A highly original gift: make your own beeswax wraps (a reusable and natural way to keep food fresh). Also now available with Christmas fabric.

Everything you need (other than fabric) to make the equivalent of two packs of wraps. Very little skill involved so suitable for children as well as adults though young children will need supervision. 

​

If you are looking for original presents, especially for those hard-to-buy-for men, have a look at these items made from recycled bicycle inner tubes. What's not to love? 
​

​
​This Cycle of Good wallet is made from recycled inner tubes saved from UK landfill. 

11cm by 9.5cm
​Sadly, the wallet comes without the cash shown.

This unlined roomy wash bag is also made from recycled inner tubes saved from UK landfill.

Some of the recycled inner tubes have manufacturers' writing or the odd puncture repair patch meaning no two wash bags will ever be identical.

​24cm by 13cm by 11cm
Please note, the wash bag comes without the contents shown.

​
This fully zipped pencil case, made from recycled inner tubes, is lined with eye-catching wax-printed 100% cotton and is even shower proof to keep everything inside dry.

22.5cm by 8.5cm
​[Pencils and pens not included!]

Ideal for cyclists and for back pockets, this smaller wallet is made from, yes, recycled inner tubes. It is big enough to hold a credit card and a few notes in the Velcro secured pouch. 

​10cm by 7.5cm

​This handy key ring fob, made with recycled inner tubes, has a brass popper to clip to your bag strap or belt for added security and convenience. 

​
Another innovative and quirky product from Cycle of Good - 10 hooks made from bicycle spokes taken from buckled bike wheels.

Use around the house or shed - hang your cups, pans, utensils, jewellery, scissors . . .  anything that needs hanging!

​
​A great present for all bike lovers - a bicycle key ring made from recycled copper wire. We also have a few green crocodile key rings. 

Thanks to Cycle of Good for this and other photos.

​Hairy Ballz are a great gift, not least because of the name! Put these wool balls in your washing machine - as water from your laundry passes through them they catch the tiny particles of synthetic fibre that have been released from your clothing.

The ballz will keep working on reducing ocean pollution for approximately 100 washes - when they need to be changed they can be put out with your clothes recycling or taken to a local textile recycling point.

​
Luxury hand-made vegan soap from Wild Sage makes a great affordable present - and they smell beautiful. Wild Sage is a small family-run business hand crafting cold processed soaps and skin-loving balms from natural ingredients.

Available in different varieties.

A luxurious hair conditioner, also from Wild Sage - a perfect gift to treat someone (or yourself!)


Organic Broccoli oil is a light, readily absorbed oil that is packed full of A,C,K and B vitamins.

Made from 8 recycled plant pots, this bird feeder can be used with bread, cheese, meat fats, and so on. Guidelines included!

We stock a range of great gifts for bird lovers of all ages . . . 

An eco food waste table, made from 84 upcycled plant pots.

Use the tray for unwanted food, e.g. leftover rice or apples (or even Christmas cake!) 

Looking for an unusual and interesting gift for a child?
​This make-your-own bird feeder comes complete with a base made from recycled plant pots, a rubber seal/stopper made from recycled car tyres, two blank wraps to make your own design, string, instructions and a child-friendly pamphlet explaining recycling.

All that is needed is a tin and some crayons!

And finally, for all bird lovers, a bird cake kit to make your own fat ball cakes. The kit includes suet, seeds, recipes and instructions and a unique bird cake mould that converts to the feeder (and of course is made from recycled materials - 10 yoghurt pots!)
