Spring is already here and we have been using what the season starting to offer.

Two weeks ago we travelled to Whiteley's Farm in West Yorkshire to collect some beautiful forced rhubarb which is grown in the dark in rhubarb sheds then harvested by candle light to maintain it's delicate pink hue. We have made the most of this beautiful product by preserving it into jam and cordials, experimenting with kombucha and on the counter in our baked goods.

Foraging is starting to prove fruitful with wild garlic shoots coming up and young nettles looking promising.

Levenshulme Market returns this Saturday after it's winter break and with it comes the return of the themed monthly night markets. We will be opening until 10pm on Fridays when the night market is on so please pop in for wine, cheese and snacks.

We hosted some wonderful events at Isca in February and we are looking forward to hosting more in March and April.

Tonight we are "In Stories" with Ladies of Restaurants at Cultureplex in the city centre followed by our first Kombucha workshop with Jules of The Plucky Pickle on Thursday.
