Sharpening tools and cleaning silver

There's nothing like good sharp secateurs or kitchen knives to get a cutting job done efficiently. Being able to sharpen your own tools will definitely give you the 'edge'. Mandy has been offering her sharpening skills at the Repair Café for some years, and will now share them with us. She will also demonstrate a method for cleaning silver items such as jewellery. This will be followed by a garden tour with a brief discussion of pest management. There will also be a swap table for surplus produce, plants, seeds and other useful items.

What to bring: Secateurs and knives for sharpening; silver jewellery (not too intricate) for cleaning; items for the swap table.
