This is the weekly bulletin from Loaf in Stirchley, with our specials, lunches and cookery school classes.

We are Back!

We hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year. We have lots of things to look fowrard to this year with our big move to the Stirchley Co-operative Development (updates on that to follow) and your continued support has made it all possible!

We didn’t quite reach our target on our Crowdfunder so if you were meaning to donate but didn’t get the chance over the festive period then it is still up and taking donations, just click here.

The other big way to help us financially right now is by buying gift vouchers to be used for cookery school classes in the new building for when we re-open. These are great gifts as they can be redeemed towards any of the courses we offer!

Our opening hours are:
Wed-Fri: 12-6
Saturday: 8-1

Join Loaf’s Bread Club!

A few weeks ago we released a reward within our Crowdfunder to join our Bread Club, which means that after our move into the new building you will get one free loaf of bread every week!

Despite the rewards being now closed on the Crowdfunder you can still join by donating £250 to our Crowdfunder, and we will add you to the weekly Bread Club list where you can redeem one loaf per week once we’re up and running in our new home.

You can see, there are still a few bits and bobs to do, but it gets more and more real and we can’t wait for the move to come and finally start Loaf’s next chapter. Watch this space!

Cookery School Classes

Thank you so much for filling up our Jan/Feb classes so quickly! We are v hopeful that we will be able to release the first bunch of classes in our new home soon but due to a number of moving parts we are reluctant to do this just yet.

We would much rather be upfront and honest than have people disappointed if we have to change the dates. We understand this is frustrating for those who want to attend our courses but we would hate to leave people in an unpredictable situation. As mentioned above, we are still selling our cookersy school gift cards and these are a great way to support us while we push forward to the moving date.
