Good morning!

We’re open today til 4pm and are stocked full of delicious goodies to see you through the weekend!

We have bread on sale today - come grab yourself a bargain! They fly off the shelves so come down quick if you’re fancying yourself a sourdough loaf for Sunday morning breakky!

We have sourdough, focaccia and lemon curd focaccia on sale today!

The focaccia just needs a quick refresh in the oven and it’s like new, and the sourdough is great for toasting! Or slice the lot and freeze it for that midweek emergency stash when you don’t want to go out shopping!

Pop down and say hi 👋

Jennie also brought along the Just Let Your Soul Grow Seed Library - a free collection of seeds to help you start your own growing at home. She shared her expertise on getting into growing, even if you only have the smallest of spaces 🌿

Leading the session was Sunshine’s Head Chef, Andrea, alongside our newly promoted Sous Chef, Charlie, who started his Community & Youth Work Degree Apprenticeship just last week! 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳

We were also joined by as part of the Pride in Place consultation, who illustrated some of the session - including a fabulous illustration of Andrea and Charlie cooking away
