Wander & Graze

01/09/2023

Hello everyone!

Just wanted to pop on and give a wee update. I’ve been getting some messages through asking when we will/if we will be back. A few of you asking about Christmas too ☺️

We have been busy enjoying life as a family of 5. Alma and Este joined us on the 7th of April and are now 21 weeks. Cora has been the best big sister and life has be absolute chaos but so much fun.

With that we will not be doing anything Wander and Graze related for the foreseeable but as soon as we have some breathing space and time to get creative again we will let you all know. Thank you for all your lovely messages and for those of you still looking to support us, it’s so kind!

Hope everyone is well! We miss seeing you all at the shop x

Good morning!

Just wanted to remind everyone that we are now closed for orders and the small amount of spaces we did have for Christmas Eve are now full. We aren’t regularly monitoring out social media pages either. The shop has been closed for a month now and we are taking some downtime.

Thanks! Hope you all have a great Christmas.

Hi everyone!

Hope you’re enjoying the snow and keeping safe.
We have a few goodie boxes we wanted to offer to you all.

We have 6 boxes with some left over stock available. Each box is valued between £23-£27 and contain a mix of long life stock (see pics below for examples) we are offering these for £10 each and can deliver in the Chapelton/Newtonhill area or we can arrange collection. If you’re interested pop us a wee message. We love these products so much and they are all high quality so would love to see them go and be used ☺️

All our shorter life and pantry items have been donated to local charities.

That’s it from us!

Thank you for a busy day and for coming to support us on our last day. We genuinely will miss all of our customers. We will also miss our neighbours at some of who we’ve become such good friends with. Thanks for all your support the past year.
A BIG thank you to all our suppliers, we are genuinely so spoilt for choice in Aberdeen and the shire.
A huge thanks to our amazing team we’ve had the last year at the deli. Especially Mairi (Michael’s mum) who has been absolutely amazing and always on hand to help when needed.

We are sad to be closing the shop but so excited for our next adventure which is sure to be our busiest one yet 👶🏼👶🏼
We hope to come back to our wee business in some capacity in the future but in the meantime we will be enjoying the madness of family life.

We also want to take this opportunity to ask everyone who has ever supported to continue to support and shop local. All small businesses need your support now more than ever and what would we do without all these small independent shops?!

We hope you all have a lovely Christmas!

Hello everyone!

We are popping on this morning with a few bits of news for you all. Now that all our family and friends have been told we can share with you all that we are expecting twins in spring 2023. We are both over the moon and are so excited to be growing our family and we are sure Cora will make the BEST big sister!

With that comes some sad news….we have made the decision to close Wander and Graze The Deli. This wasn’t an easy decision but we feel it’s for the best considering how dramatically our lives will be changing next year.
Things also haven’t been easy the last few months with soaring costs all over the board which we can see affecting lots of other small businesses too.

We are so grateful for everyone’s support these last few years and we will miss all our customers.
Thank you to and for everything and we will miss working along side you all.

The biggest thank you to our wee team Mairi, Leah and Lucy! You have all been amazing and so supportive and helped us through lots of challenges (especially juggling shop life and new parent life).

We have a rough closing date of Wednesday the 30th of November but we will keep you all up to date on that. Orders for boxes are still open as usual and the shop will operate as usual until then as well. Keep an eye out for special closing down offers too!

Thank you all so much and we hope to see you all in the shop before we go!
