Series of Summer Sales!
Now we know what you’re thinking - ‘Summer, what summer?!’ but this might just put a spring in your step, so to speak.
Nine years of running The Christmas Present Trust does not happen without accruing a number of assets, so we plan to sell these (together with lots of good quality items that we no longer need) to raise money for the trust to ensure that those who want to take over have a healthy budget to start with. Throw in a Stuart Morris tea towel or two, and you get the picture.
In the event that the takeover does not happen, we will use the money for the benefit of Hadleigh residents through a series of well-planned events to create inclusivity and celebrate our community. Meanwhile, come and bag a bargain at any of the following venues:-

It’s time for tea on the terrace
Sunshine and blue skies may have been eluding us somewhat this year, but when they do appear, my how we do appreciate them! It is so lovely when our customers can enjoy sitting outside on the Corn Craft terrace relaxing with good food, good company and of course, good weather! To tempt your tastebuds, our chef is making some delicious ‘summer specials’ which include a scrumptious handmade Pork Pie served with a fresh salad, and our Scotch Egg & Cheddar Ploughman’s is already back on the menu. Summer is also a great time to enjoy one of our special “Afternoon High Teas”. Finger sandwiches, sweet & savoury scones and sweet treats, all presented on a three tiered cake stand with white tablecloths and vintage china. These special afternoon teas have received some wonderful reviews and are a perfect treat for a special friend or family member. If you want something a little smaller, we also includes two of our delicious homemade fruit scones with clotted
vouchers for these experiences which can be purchased in the shop or online. They make a great gift for any Corn Craft lover! If you haven’t been to Corn Craft before, you may wonder if we maybe in corn dollies, but today we are a beautiful gift shop and a homely tea room, nestled in the pretty village of Monks Eleigh.
