Wood Turning and Introduction to Woodwork DIY

Events coming up in Fressingfield, Suffolk

Fressingfield Shed open day - our annual open day will next be in April 2026

Fabric Re-use Hub at the Fressingfield Shed is under construction. We are busy setting up a fabric re-use hub. We are very excited about this initiative for sourcing material that would otherwise go into waste, and supporting the circular economy through re-use. Fabric donations from the interiors industry will be sought and fabric made available for free to Shed members and for a low cost to the general public who wish to use the fabric for their own projects. Upholstery, clothing, handbags, cushions, curtains.....only your imagination is the limit! If you are interested in volunteering to support or would like to pick up some fabric please get in touch info@thefressingfieldshed.co.uk

stay tuned for future events to be posted here...

Tuesday morning garden building: Our garden is under construction - if you have time to help us build the garden during May, June, July, August 2025 please get in touch. See our garden page for more info. Novices and experts both welcome and needed!

Fressingfield Shed Workshops - we are planning some more workshops on a variety of topics such as DIY around the house, learn to repair your bicycle, rag rug making, router skills, woodworking and more. Stay in touch here for more details as dates are announced.
