🎉 1,000 FOLLOWERS on Instagram! 🎉

We’ve just hit an amazing milestone — 1,000 people supporting CTA CIC.

To everyone who has followed, shared our posts, supported our events, and believed in what we’re building… thank you. This community is the reason CTA exists.

CTA CIC was created to build opportunities through creativity, collaboration and community — providing spaces where people can learn, create, connect and grow. Every single follower helps us move closer to making that vision a reality.

But we’re only just getting started.

🚀 Our next target is 10,000 followers.

Why does that matter?

Reaching that level of support gives us the leverage and visibility we need when working with contractors, suppliers and service providers. It helps us secure better partnerships, better prices, and better support — meaning we can invest more directly back into the community projects, workshops, and creative spaces we’re building.

In short: the bigger our community, the bigger the impact we can make.

If you believe in what we’re doing, you can help us get there:

✔ Follow CTA CIC
✔ Share this post
✔ Tag a friend who should know about us
✔ Help us reach 10,000 supporters

This is just the beginning.
Let’s build something incredible together. 🖤💛

All about the Bean 🤎

At The Hatch, everything starts with the bean.
Not just any bean — the bean. The one that makes you pause mid‑sip and go, “Oh… that’s good.

”We’re building The Hatch for real coffee lovers.
The kind of people who want to know where their coffee comes from, why it tastes the way it does, and what makes one roast sing while another falls flat.

That’s why we source only the best beans we can get our hands on — ethically grown, expertly roasted, and chosen with intention. Every batch is selected for flavour, character, and the story behind it.

Because great coffee isn’t an accident.
It’s crafted. Curated. Respected

And when you step up to The Hatch, that’s exactly what you’ll taste.
