Bakers Club

Do you love to bake?

The Hastings Bakers Club meets to share recipes, baking tips, and of course food! We have a new theme every month, and bring along something we’ve made to share. Bakers Club members also get first access to new baking and food books.

It’s a great way to meet new people, learn something new and bond over kai. Baking experiments are more than welcome!

Masks are required to be worn in the libraries, except by those who are exempt.

When do we meet?

We meet once a month on the 1st Tuesday of each month
10.30am - 11.30am at Hastings War Memorial Library

What are the monthly themes?

Our themes for the year will be:
