Held in Hertford 12th-14th August. A Safari Tent was booked so people could stay in it if they wished and it could serve as a hub for the gathering.

Held in August at Clitheroe in an attempt to increase attendance from the north of the British Isles. This was only partially successful though it was a pleasure to meet three people (and one dog) who had not been before. It’s a lovely little town, and we enjoyed ourselves despite the traditional Lancashire weather.

2009 - Freestock 1
The inaugural Freestock was held at Baggeridge Country Park, Gospel End, Sedley, Dudley, West Midands, DY3 4HB.
At that time, it was planned as a Freecycle event but, in the time between the planning and the event, difficulties were becoming very apparent in the UK with Freecycle. Deron was invited but didn't attend, despite having his expenses offered to be paid.
