✨✨✨Farewell✨✨✨

It’s time for us to say goodbye to The Mighty Seed and the Hanover community as we’ll be moving on to our next exciting venture.

From Thursday the cafe will be owned by a mother and daughter duo who are so passionate about food. They’re really excited about taking the shop to the next level, putting their own twist on things and with Laurelle being a chef, there are some exciting things to come!

It’s been an amazing 4 years serving the Hanover Community, we took on a tired shop that was in desperate need of TLC and a dose of good food and I think we did our best to bring that to you.

For 3 years we also grew tons of our own organic fruit and veg throughout summer and autumn months that we used in our dishes for you to try.

In our time here we’ve only worked with local business and gave those starting out a shelf to sell from. We’ve supported many artists and community groups allowing them to use our space. We’ve had a range of chefs bringing you interesting pop-up food nights. We’ve collected van load after van load of your donations of clothes to those in need all while we’ve been setting up our own community food project for refugees and asylum seekers, which so many of you have been involved with-thank you! 💚 We think it’s been a great success being our first business and we really hope you think so too.

We’ll be sad to say goodbye, but being a cook, managing a shop, a piece of food growing land and running a community project, although has been fun, it’s also been such a tremendous amount of work which we just can’t sustain long term.....and with the land calling us we realised it was time to make changes 💚

You’ll still be able to find us at Stanmer Organics working the land and running community events so please do stay in touch....if you follow our community project Common Ground Brighton https://www.facebook.com/commongroundbrighton/ you’ll be informed of events that we’ll be running.

Please do come in and say goodbye to us and welcome in the new owners.

We want to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to our amazing staff that we’ve had over the years, our wonderful suppliers and you, our customers it’s been an absolute pleasure and look forward to seeing you all soon.

Come have a seat at our table and make community happen ☕️

With over 600,000 people living in our city, no one should feel alone. Help to support us building community and making it an even friendlier place by sharing a Table Talk table. There are some great ones in Portslade including Buondi Cafe and Blend Coffee Co.

Last week we met with the wonderful Sue who started Table Talk, an initiative to get more people talking to one another in cafes and other public spaces and The Mighty Seed has become a member....on the table upstairs of the cafe you will see a sign which is an invite for you to talk to another customer....see this video which explains this lovely idea. Hope you'll get involved 🦋
