This week mince pies go on sale! What more is there to say?
Other than we’ll be at Stirchley Market this Saturday for our first baking surgery. See you there!
We’ll have plenty of bread and pastries on the shelves all day, with lunches served from noon on weekdays.

You’ve been patient for 11 months and it’s time to be rewarded. Our legendary mince pies are on sale from this Thursday 1st December.
Packed with the finest ingredients, including local apples and stout from Attic Brew Co, they’re available as vegan or buttered.
Pre-orders for the rest of December will go live this weekend, including mince pies, so you won’t miss out.
Spread the word — mince pies are back!
We’re running a drop-in baking surgery at Stirchley Community Market this Saturday from 10 to 3pm.
Bring any questions you have about your bread or pastry baking and Loaf baker and tutor Neil will do his best to answer. You can find out more about Real Bread, chat over any problems with your bake and get some expert tips.
No charge, but a donation to the B30 Food Bank would be appreciated!
Stirchley Market is a non-profit project completely run by volunteers and is one of the seeds of Stirchley’s current blossoming. We’re delighted to see it back after the pandemic break. Go check it out and get some locally-made festive gifts and treats!
No time for a news roundup this week as we’re heads down getting ready for December, but if you’ve got news or an event in Loaf’s wheelhouse (some variation on bread / community / cooperatives), let us know at newsletter@loaf.coop
Lunches are made fresh weekdays for 12 noon.
Our menu for the week — with ingredients and allergens — is on the website.
That’s it for 2022 — thanks to everyone who attended a class!
Dates for the new year will be released mid-December. You can sign up to alert lists for specific classes here.
Thanks for all your continued support. See you next week!
