The EcoCafé
At the heart of The Fold® is The ecoCafé, a place to meet in a convivial atmosphere, eat quality whole foods, browse through interesting eco goods, magazines and second hand books or simply have a chat, exchange views and relax.
Locally Sourced World Food
We source our ingredients as locally as we can and whilst we do use ingredients from further a field, such as spices, grains and pulses, we source these from Europe where possible and work with our suppliers to ensure our ingredients have not been flown in. We are thoroughly into Slow food and the Slow Food movement; see www.slowfoodworcestershire.org.uk for more information.
Our buffet style menu is based on fresh, seasonal, local, organic and fair trade ingredients with a health conscious bias, lovingly prepared under the guidance of Shamanic Chef David with support from Charlotte, Steve and our team in our theatre Kitchen. See www.theshamanskitchen.com

Eco Goods and Information
The ecoCafé also stocks an exciting range of ecologically sound and locally produced products. We have green goods such as wrought iron work, cosmetics, wooden toys, gently used books, some of Europe's most environmentally friendly paints from Auro (see below) and more, as well as information about how to make real changes to reduce our impact on the earth. If you have any suggestions of green products that you think we might like to stock, particularly if locally made, then please let us know.
Auro paints at The Fold®
The Fold® is your local regional distributor for Auro paints. Auro paints are manufactured to some of the highest environmental standards in the industry; for bonding agents, vegetable raw materials are used exclusively. All paints are water based and where products, such as wood preservatives, require solvent, orange oil is used.
Even their production is managed in an ecologically sound manner at the certified carbon neutral factory. Where possible Auro collect rainwater for use in manufacture and one of the main ingredients in the range, linseed oil, is all produced within 30km of the factory, from predominately organic sources.
None of this comes at a cost to performance however and they still provide excellent quality, as well as a safe, chemical free environment. Most of the painting, oiling and waxing in the ecoCafé and WholeHealth have been done with Auro products, so why not come down and see them in action.
