💥Always check where your fish & seafood has come from 🔎

(And if you love Scallops like we do - ONLY EVER BUY HAND DIVED scallops❗️ Though, be warned, most places just sell nasty trawled scallops because they’re so much cheaper... prior to lockdown, I can’t remember the last time I was at a restaurant and able to order scallops (‘able’ meaning my conscience would allow it)

Always ask your food provider where their seafood has come from / how it was caught - if they can’t answer, don’t buy it and enjoy some lovely mushrooms instead! 😋

Preventing waste is so important. That’s why we’re so excited to be benefitting from a (traditionally) waste product from the brilliant 🙌. These guys not only produce incredibly tasty coffee, but the way in which they produce it, is incredibly sustainable + really inspiring! 💯 We’re proud to mention their name 💚⁣⁣

Meet the Old Bank Members: .⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Andy and Josh launched Blossom Coffee Roasters during lockdown, striving for sustainability and carbon neutrality, and focusing on making good coffee simple and accessible. They are also a pending !⁣⁣
⁣⁣
To help them reach their target of eliminating 100% of their waste that heads to landfill by 2021, Blossom have teamed up with .urbanfarm based out in Stockport this month. By utilising the waste coffee chaff (the thin, nitrogen rich outer layer of the coffee bean that is removed during the roasting process) the team at Seed are able to produce a rich compost that is perfect for growing urban mushrooms and micro greens that they then supply to local restaurants and farm shops.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
In the coming months Blossom will be launching a host of partnerships with local businesses that is aimed at shining a spotlight on how we can get more creative with finding alternative uses for waste that would just normally end up in the bin.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Each month Blossom host online events at the Old Bank open for all to attend. There’s no coffee knowledge or pour over prowess needed to take part, simply an interest in the world of sustainability and the journey of one of the world’s favourite hot drinks from bean to cup.⁣⁣
