Keeping it Fresh

January 7th, 2014

For a while now we have wanted to move things around in our cafe/bakery space and recently we have been offered the help of a good friend of ours a Mr Matt Kelly. With his help we are going to be making changes to give a fresh feel to our space and give our customers a better environment to sit and move around in.

These are just a few of the images that have given us those twinges of excitement as we eagerly reach for the tape measure, paint brushes and screw drivers.

Emma’s Dairy - new milk supplier

November 27th, 2013

We are now getting our milk for the cafe from Emma’s Dairy.

Located at the base of the infamous Pendle hill as part of Gazegill Organic farm, Emma’s Dairy is not only nationally assured, but has been recently accredited the highest level of stewardship by Natural England- few dairies nationwide achieve this. Soon to be carbon-neutral, the dairy is part of a beautiful family-run farm and it’s a really open and friendly place.

With a herd of approximately 60 rare-breed short-horn cows (traditional breed similar to a Jersey), the herd produces the A2 variety milk as opposed to A1. This means that the protein molecules in the milk can almost always be tolerated by folk who suffer an intolerance to lactose. The cows are also pasture fed all year round and if ever sick, natural methods of medicine are always followed. It is rare that antibiotics are ever used and if so, it’s only as a last resort and cows subjected to them are allowed a double withdrawal period from the milking herd to ensure they are completely clear before they rejoin the herd.

We really like ceramacist Joe Hartley’s work. Especially his makers collection.

‘I hand make naturally leavened bread with just flour, water and salt, and my collection of objects, intended to aid the making of bread, are hand made from similarly simple materials; wood, clay and cloth’ ,…….we think they’d be perfect for Trove 😉
