SCRATCHgathering at SCRATCHshop | August 29

Posted on 13. Aug, 2010 by in Fundraiser, SCRATCHjournal

Friends, Fans, Supporters, Good People…

We say come on over this Sunday and raise a glass at our amazing new (almost complete) food workshop. We’re breaking some bread and previewing tasty bites from SCRATCHbread’s hot toast menu at our walk-up retail window (toasted stuffed savory muffins, griddled chai sticky buns, and other morsels of deliciousness). We’ll have Brooklyn Soda Works’ latest seasonal soda on tap, wine courtesy of Chestnut restaurant, and work some super local produce from BK Farmyards into the mix.

We’d be tickled to see you, and spread the word!
Sunday, August 29 (2 – 6 pm)
1069 Bedford Avenue (at Lexington), Brooklyn NY 11216

Kickstarter Update

Posted on 05. Aug, 2010 by in Fundraiser, SCRATCHjournal

So weʼve hit a few great points. Weʼve passed 5gʼs on the campaign and I’ve got the shop just about ready to start testing new ideas….CHECK out the photos of the old and new space on facebook. Weʼve also gotten a lot of great props and awesome write ups, including the super fresh Nona Brooklyn piece, Brooklyn Based, Eater.com, Village Voice, and awesome mentions coming up in Cooking Light magazine, PLATE magazine and perhaps a cameo at a Beard event soon (that’s a secret) well. We’re building a lot of momentum, but we need as many people checking out our campaign as possible… weʼve still got $20k to raise… eeeeeek! and Iʼve got nutthin without the success of this campaign. Thanks everybody.

BK FARMYARDS EVENT IS OVER

Posted on 24. Aug, 2009 by in Friends of SCRATCH, Fundraiser, SCRATCHjournal

What an amazing time, great people, excellent vibe, good cause and superb food. I had the pleasure of meeting the amazing Stacey, Founder of BK farmyards, and i wanted to package her up and take her home… … this event, well, i cant wait until the next one, as I’d like to help build this to a food festival that rivals the best… I had the honor of rockin some great bread with a collaboration from two of my clients, GET FRESH, and Blue Apron. We gave tons of bread, made lots of friends, and I talked too much… with the help of my amazing assistant, I saved a few vocal chords, but attracted the attention of those who are really getting the brand… sure we passed out bread… but we all in the end gave a big group hug to the future of local business ship, and taking care of the people supporting it… Thanks to everyone for opening their mouths and ears to SCRATCHbread… lets keep in touch.

Ive been asked to participate in an amazing cause this weekend. BK farmyards, is an awesome movement/project to transform all unused plots of land throughout Brooklyn into full fledged produce farms… This food can be used for a number of purposes from hunger, to community involvement and restaurant usage… This Sat. the fundraiser is going to be a great big PARTY, I’ll be there, there are great sponsors, music & food; and ill basically be giving out delicious tastings of my bread along with some spread, dips and cheese provided by my amazing clients… Ill probably sell pieces of my bread as well to be able to provide to a larger audience… Friday night I will go for my largest bake by my own to hands… Show me some luv on Saturday and stop by and say hello.
