Mustard Tree

The Mustard Tree Cafe is a charitable project of Hurworth Methodist Church. As well as providing a peaceful and relaxing meeting space in the village, we work closely with the Hurworth Rogers Charitable Trust to offer activities to increase wellbeing and mental health in the village.

As a project of the Methodist Church, you can be assured that our staff are paid a Living Wage, and that any profit stays in the village to support activities among young and old alike. We continue to invest in our premises to provide a safe, welcoming environment for all who visit and use them.

Our name, The Mustard Tree comes from one of Jesus' parables in the Bible, where Jesus says tells of a tiny mustard seed that grows into a large tree, and becomes a home for the birds of the air! You might think that buying a coffee and a cake, or a tea and a sandwich is a small thing, but as part of The Mustard Tree Project, you are supporting something much bigger -- together we can become a community that cares for one another, and where everyone can find a home, a place of welcome and peace, and the resources for wellbeing of body, mind and soul.

We hope you will continue to support our cafe here at Hurworth Methodist Church and that you'll be excited as we are about The Mustard Tree Project. We'd love to hear from you, whether about products you'd like to see in the cafe or about activities you'd like us to host. Whether you simply want to tuck into our excellent food and drink, meet friends or you'd like to get more involved in the wellbeing side of the cafe, this is your space -- enjoy!
