We decided to purchase a mill and use freshly stoneground grains
for all our recepies that include stoneground, wholemeal flour.
We have also been asked if we could sell the grains freshly milled for home-baking,
so that's just what we are going to do.

Organic certification

Posted by Tobias Schwenn on Wednesday, January 27, 2010, In : General Updates 
Due to a public interest about the certification of my products to be organic, I found out that legaly I'm not allowed to call my bread organic until I'm certified with an officially recognized organasation.

So I just call it natural, to be out of trouble, until I finished the certification process with the
 Soil Association.
Please feel free to contact me about this issue at anytime.
