Hundred House Coffee

Coffee Caravan : Hundred House Coffee residency

Published on Tuesday 17th August 2021 at 10:32 AM

In August we welcomed Hundred House Coffee to Oriel Davies. The caravan was out on the patio for a month and quickly established itself as the best place for coffee and a chat in Newtown. Word spread quickly that the excellent barista, Ellie, was a Welsh speaker and could and could rustle up a mean Fflat White!

You can find them next at Ludlow Food Festival 10-12 September 2021

The Once and Future Wild

Published on Wednesday 2nd June 2021 at 2:06 PM

"Birdsong crept in its stead, the soft crick-crick of insects, the far-off lowing of wild longhorn cattle. Through the mist, a thousand silver butterflies flitted round a lichen-strewn branch, setting down for the night. The bushy tail of a red squirrel twitched and a small brown bird hopped in a patch of scrub. Wings sailed by- a nightjar scooping moths in the breeze. Somewhere, an owl hooted, and more cried in answer. The rhythm of a long-ago wild, a lost wild, a restored wild. The sound slipped in through cracks and corners, everywhere."

Detholiad o ‘The Once and Future Wild’ a ysgrifennwyd gan Daisy Dunn ar gyfer Cynulliad ODG, 2021.
