the brave little toaster goes to mars 1998 bread and butter

Up until now they’ve been sharing dining space, but at the start of November they will open their very own premises in Onehunga and we’ll be their regular bread supplier – an exciting development that I can’t wait to see come to fruition. People pay what they can and “meals are served with a smile at shared tables by a team of amazing volunteers”.

They use perfectly good food that would otherwise go to waste to serve restaurant quality, 3-course meals, prepared by volunteer chefs.

So instead of the City Mission we’re now supporting an organisation called Everybody Eats and they work in a different way to traditional food collectors. The City Mission however no longer wants our bread, because they are inundated with supermarket loaves and since those come already sliced, they find them easier to deal with than our whole loaves. Up until recently we worked with the City Mission and Hope Worldwide, who would come and collect our unsold bread and distribute it in food parcels. I’m horrified at how much waste there is, particularly with my favourite staple, bread.Īt my Bread and Butter Bakery we work really hard to try and reduce waste of all kinds and over the years we’ve partnered with a few different organisations to save bread and feed hungry people.

One of the best (and easiest) things we can do to reduce our environmental impact is to reduce waste, especially food waste.
