Woodgreen Community Shop
For your everyday groceries and so much more!
This week has been Volunteers’ Week and is the perfect time to thank the very many volunteers who help us out in so many ways each and every week.![]()
You are what makes our shop so special and a true ‘Community’ shop. Thank you!
Everyone’s heading to the shop to stock up on necessities and luxuries for the half term week!![]()
There are so many young foals around at the moment, and they are a huge part of our village landscape. However, please remember to admire them from a distance, so they have the chance to enjoy their Forest, and are not enticed onto the roads by petting or feeding.
There will be no Fish and Chips at the shop this evening as Tony is doing a 100 mile sponsored bike ride - London 2023 - for Wessex Heartbeat, a charity which supported him and his wife, Lorraine back in 2021.![]()

We wish Tony all the very best for today’s ride! 🚴♂️🚴♂️

Today we were very pleased to officially open our ”Coffee and Cake” area! Made possible by a generous legacy from a long time Woodgreener, Peter Arnold, the bunting was cut by his sister, Jean, with friends from the village and beyond and family present. It is wonderful that a dedicated area in memory of Peter, who loved to sit with a coffee after getting his shopping, can now be enjoyed by many. ![]()
We also took delivery of a bench, in memory of Peter and his wife Sheila, which was given to Peter by the villagers to celebrate his 80th birthday, and which can be enjoyed by villagers on sunnier days as they tuck into delicious cake and coffee.![]()
