The gluten-free Marlenka honey is back! And it brought a new friend 🥰

I had to find a new supplier, and they had another gluten-free option, the honey nuggets, and they are delish!

We've got some more gluten-free items, too. GF carrot cake and two kinds of brownies from - classic chocolate and salted caramel.

Hopefully that's the rain off, but don't let it stop you coming out. We're open 10am to 5pm.

From

Join us for a fun, expressive and MESSY evening of fingerpainting!

When was the last time you dipped your fingers in paint and totally let go of any sense of control or perfection?!

This evening, the adults are getting messy and having a laugh. Let your inner child PLAY! Using non-toxic paints we will work on a large canvas and you'll have a keepsake to take back with you.

The only goal for the night is to HAVE FUN.

Why fingerpainting?
Because when we let ourselves feel the paint, feel the page, and let go of expectations, there is a sense of freedom and excitement and expression that rises. This is my favorite technique for getting me out of my head and into my body.

As an artist myself, I get trapped in my own loops of perfection and control, and fingerpainting completely elimates that.

*You will be supplied an apron but please wear paint-appropirate clothing.
