Chorlton Wholefoods at 64 Beech Road is a purveyor of fine veggie and vegan foodstuffs. I was a regular when I lived in Chorlton in the 1980s & 90s, when it was called Sunflowers.

Info on the week's events . The UK Vegetarian Society was formed in Manchester in 1847 with its HQ in Altrincham.
The Albert Square webcam, high in the Town Hall tower always gives a nice overview of events too: http://www.manchesterdda.net/webcams/albert-square/

Cool place! I am not a vegetarian, but I do enjoy this sort of places.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun event Chrissy, I certainly would like to watch the chefs whip up some tasty vegetarian meals, maybe you could share your favorite one with us?

ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun event to attend... I love the look of this shop! Sorry I been so quiet these last couple weeks, I’ve been really ill (now finally diagnosed with Whooping Cough even though I was immunized) and have had another very rough week.
