Better wheat, better bread

Thirty years ago, we started with a simple belief; that bread could be better. Better for the people who eat it, the bakers who make it, and the land that grows it. The kind that’s slow-fermented, deeply flavourful, and rooted in real craft. But good bread starts long before the dough. It begins in the field; with the wheat, the soil, and the people who care for both. That’s why we’ve spent years rethinking where our ingredients come from and how they’re grown. By working with farmers who nurture soil rather than exhaust it, we’re helping to grow a food system that restores rather than takes.

Better wheat, better bread

A few things we’re proud of….

 

  • 860 tonnes of soil-positive flour sourced last year, baked into more than two million loaves sold in 2024.
  • In 2025, we’re aiming for 3,750 tonnes, about 14% of the total flour we use.
  • Working directly with 10 nature-led UK farms.
  • We continue supporting practices like diverse crop rotations, minimal tilling, and livestock integration to rebuild soil health and biodiversity.

We care more about progress than labels. Whether it’s organic, regenerative, or simply the right thing, our focus is on measurable outcomes: healthier soils, stronger communities, and better flavour in every loaf.

Because when the wheat is better, everything that follows can be too.
