Examples

Bristol JarSquad

In 2022, we met some folks at our Transactionland assembly, who were interested in starting their own JarSquad in Bristol. We have supported them in setting off, and they are now slowly expanding!

Stoke Village JarSquad

During 2023, we partnered with The Village Hub to provide support and guidance for a Stoke and Morice Town based JarSquad which may include a batch-cooking club nestled within it.
