Five months ago we left our old home believing we’d only be ‘nomads’ for a few weeks. Five months later, we’re still waiting.

The new building is finished, but we’re still waiting for GSA to complete the final paperwork and give us a move-in date. Sadly, we’re not the only ones in limbo. The residents who were expecting to move into their co-operative homes, along with our neighbours Artefact and Birmingham Bike Foundry are all still waiting too.

Despite everything, Loaf has kept going. Bread has still been baked, lunches have still been served, and we’ve somehow made ‘Loaf on Tour’ work - something which was only possible thanks to the incredible independent businesses who’ve welcomed us into their spaces, including The Steamhouse Bakery , DEADBEAT , anosh. , verbena , Birmingham Artisan Markets , The Shed Friends of Cotteridge Park , and Grace & James . Without their generosity, Loaf simply wouldn’t still be here.

And, of course, thank you to everyone who’s bought bread from a pop-up, visited us at a market, placed a pre-order or donated to our Crowdfunder. Every loaf, lunch, bun and donation has helped keep us going.

We’re so close now, but we’re not quite there. Storage costs continue to mount, our reserves are running low, and we still need funds to move everything across and buy the equipment needed to get the bakery and cookery school fully up and running.

If you’ve already donated to our Crowdfunder - thank you!! If you haven’t, or you’re able to support us again, we’d be incredibly grateful for any help getting us over the finish line.

Thank you for sticking with us through this strange chapter. We can’t wait to finally open the doors to our new home and get back to doing what Loaf does best 💛💛

Loaf pop-up at Grace & James in Kings Heath on Sunday 2nd August from 12-3pm!

🥖 🧀 🍷A couple of weeks ago we set up a few tables for a pop up shop at Grace & James, a neighbourhood wine bar, deli and cheesemonger which opened back in 2018 in Kings Heath.

💛It was big fun for us and now the team invited us back to their space to do another round. So come along for bread, buns and donuts on Sunday August 2nd from 12pm till 3pm in 23 York Road and enjoy the summer.

Viva Brum! Loaf will have a stall at Kings Heath’s Artisan Market this Sunday!

We are pleased to inform you that we will be joining Birmingham Artisan Market in Kings Heath at York Road this Sunday April 12th from 10-3pm selling white sourdoughs, cardamom buns, cinnamon buns and hot cross buns - so come and say hi then!

Birmingham Artisan Markets
…started with a simple mission: to create a space where local artisans could share their work with the community. They believe in the power of handmade, the beauty of small-batch production, and the importance of supporting local businesses.
Pip Bradley, who’s Pip’s Hot Sauce bottles you might recognise from our shop shelves set up the markets with other experienced Brummie independent market traders in 2023 and we are so glad they are having us this weekend!

See you Sunday?
