A monthly morning gathering for entrepreneurial food & drink brands who want to meet with their peers, share experiences, and grow together.

About the event:

If you need help driving your food and drink business forward, are looking to share challenges with others who have probably faced the same challenges as you before – or want to get together with like-minded, friendly food & drink business owners, this event is for you.

Our community aims to be that peer-to-peer group of food & drink brand owners, and as such is exclusively for founders, owners or managers of food & drink producers*.

Our brand brunch is designed to be a safe space to meet, listen to and share stories with others who are or have been in the same shoes – and even discuss some of the issues you might be facing in your business.

In each month's edition of our early morning gathering, we'll hear from a food & drink business that has overcome odds, or faced challenges that others can hopefully benefit from – personally or professionally.

For the cost of a bacon roll (vegan alternative also available) and a coffee, you'll be glad you did. Join us!

* sadly we can't accept bookings that don't meet this criteria at this time.

Who is this event for?

Our community is a peer-to-peer group, made up of food and drink producers alike. All producers, be they bakers, pie makers, coffee roasters, breweries and distilleries, are welcome to join us. Sorry, we're not able to include suppliers to the industry at this time.

Monthly folk night for Norwich. An informal evening of food, drink and vibes for the folk music lover...

Don’t miss an exclusive evening with GOOD HABITS, as they take the stage at Yalm Food Hall as part of the new FOLK AT YALM event series.

One of the most exciting new indie-folk duos to come out of the UK, Good Habits’ award winning, genre-fusion has received international critical acclaim in the short 5 years they have been performing, with performances at Glastonbury and WOMAD; tours throughout Europe and Australasia; and a Top 40 album.

Composed of Bonnie Schwarz (cello + vocals) and Pete Shaw (accordion), the pair mix virtuosic musicianship and vocal harmony with vivid storytelling, drawing on their diverse musical tastes and weaving them into an action-packed narrative of folky goodness. After a pandemic spent happily stranded in New Zealand, they arrived back in the UK in 2022 to spread their joyous music throughout Europe.

To their delight, it was a jam-packed calendar of performances, tours and musical collaborations including performances at some of the UK’s most established folk festivals and involvement in projects including Global Music Match and more.

Spend a Saturday morning learning modern calligraphy! This workshop provides everything you need to know, kit to take home and two soft drinks are included.

A two hour workshop - you can take some time out and spend some time on your own, or come with friends and family to try your hand at a new skill. A beginners calligraphy kit is included for you to keep and take home as well as your final work.

What is in the kit? You will have a pen holder, nib, a jar of black ink, my own handmade gold ink, along with worksheets, practise paper and some luxury card, with envelopes and gift tags and a box to store it all in.
