Farmer Flood Relief Bake Sale
Eat cakes and sourdough to raise money for flooded Brisbane farms.
Overview
If you like cake and you live in Brisbane, you likely know Alphabet Cafe. Its range of treats — doughnuts, cookies, muffins, slices, brownies and cherry cheesecake brioche all included — first popped up in Brissie's best cafes for years, and then started tempting tastebuds to the brand's very own spot on West End's Boundary Street, too. That's all well and tasty, but now you've got another reason to tuck into these delicious desserts and pastries: to help a worthy cause.
Joining the list of businesses and events throwing some love towards folks affected by Brissie's floods, Alphabet Cafe is hosting a Farmer Flood Relief Bake Sale on Friday, March 11, kicking off at 7am. We all know how bake sales work, so you'll be buying and eating up a cake, sourdough and pastry-filled storm to help Loop Growers in Samford and Neighbourhood Growers in Oxley. The two Brissie urban farms have been flooded in the catastrophic weather, and Alphabet is directing all proceeds from the sale to them.
Also lending their support: Coffee Supreme, Grown, Lucky Duck, Mongrel, Pasta Club, Sprout and Vvaldmeer.
That's your sweet-treat brekkie, morning tea or lunch taken care of for one day — all while doing an immensely great deed.
