Trade with your lot, not the internet.
Sell sourdough from the red gate. Lend your ladder. Bulk-buy compost with the allotment crew. Fundraise for the village hall. All in one place your neighbours actually trust.
The unwritten rules, written down
From WhatsApp chaos to something that works
Three steps. No MBA required.
Open your stall
Personal or business — tell people what you're about. Your neighbours want to know who's behind the sourdough.
List what you'd post anyway
The bread subscription, the drill you're not using, the club kit order. Photos, plain English, your terms.
Let your grove curate
Communities approve who gets a pitch. Only stalls your lot has vouched for — not random internet strangers.
However your lot does things, there's a way
Selling, sharing, teaching, giving, rallying round — Spinney fits how real communities actually operate.
Sell
Turn surplus into pocket money — or fund the next hobby
Rent
Lend the drill, gazebo, or pressure washer between uses
Donate
Pass it on — outgrown wellies, spare seedlings, pay it forward
Services
Tutoring, bike fixes, garden help — skills your lot already asks for
Subscribe
Weekly bread, monthly flowers — regular deliveries from locals
Membership
Club subs, CSA boxes, access passes — recurring by design
Group purchase
Bulk compost, kit orders, wholesale loo roll — stronger together
Fundraise
Village hall roof, charity run, new goalposts — rally the grove
Advert
Fête dates, room hire, lost cat — noticeboard that reaches your lot
Where it lives
A stall, a shop, or the grove
Personal and business are stalls on your account. A community is the spinney they join.
Personal stall
You, as a neighbour. One stall for the sourdough, the declutter, the odd hour of help.
Business stall
The shop or trade your lot already knows. A trading name, policies, and a team if you need one.
Community
The spinney those stalls join. Your lot approves who gets a pitch, and a fee share comes back.

Not every community needs an app. Yours might need a spinney.
PTA, running club, street association — your standards, your stalls, your share of the takings.
You choose who gets a stall — approval stays with people who know the context
Moderation tools that make sense, not a corporate panic button
See the impact — money circulated, causes funded, compost orders fulfilled
Stoke Newington Makers
Local grove
Your safety matters — without killing the neighbourly vibe
Messages stay on the listing or order — no strangers in your DMs
Report it. Moderators who know your grove handle it seriously
Adults only — everyone here is 18+
The grove is open
Browse stalls, join a spinney, or open your own — the group chat, with a till.
