Your corner of the grove.
You, as a neighbour. One stall for the sourdough, the declutter, the odd hour of help.
What it is
Personal stall, in a sentence or three
One personal stall per account. It is you, with your name on it. The listings can be anything from the nine types. A spinney still has to approve the stall before neighbours in that grove can see it.
Personal stall
You, as a neighbour. One stall for the sourdough, the declutter, the odd hour of help.
How it works
Three steps. No MBA required.
- 1
Open the stall
Give it a name, a short description, and a URL. You choose how precise the location is: a rough area, or hidden.
- 2
List what you would have posted anyway
A loaf, a pair of wellies, an hour of tutoring. Each listing has its own way of running. They all sit on this one stall.
- 3
Ask a spinney to let you in
You apply to the groves you already belong to. The organisers approve the stall, or they do not. Approval is theirs.
Example listings
What it looks like on a stall
Three made-up listings on one personal stall. The stall is Nell's porch. The spinney is the one that approved her.
- Sell
Spare Saturday loaf
Nell's porch · Personal stall
£4.50
One loaf, collection from the red gate
It lives on Nell's stall
Nell lists the spare loaf on her personal stall. The listing is a sale: pay, collect, done.
The spinney has already said yes
Her stall is approved in the parents' spinney, so the loaf shows there as well as on her stall page.
She handles the handover
Iris pays. Nell marks it ready at the gate. There is no shop assistant in the middle.
- Donate
Outgrown wellies
Nell's porch · Personal stall
Free
Size 10, collect after school
Same stall, different listing
The wellies are a donate listing on the same personal stall as the loaf. Nothing is charged.
Nell picks who collects
A parent requests them. Nell accepts one request and agrees a time.
The stall stays open
Once they are collected, that listing closes. The loaf listing is untouched.

The request arrives on the stall. Nell confirms Thursday at 4.

FAQs
Questions your lot will ask
How many personal stalls can I have?
One per account. It can hold listings of any of the nine types.
Who can see my stall?
Neighbours in the spinneys that approve it. You choose how precise your location is, or hide it.
Do I need to be a business?
No. That is what the personal stall is for. A business stall is for a shop or trade.
Who handles the orders?
You do. Messages, collection and payouts stay on your stall.
Ready for a stall of your own?
