Shop at Worsbrough Mill

At Worsbrough Mill they are passionate about the range of stoneground, organic flours they produce.

Using French Burr millstones driven by waterpower, they mill a range of premium quality grains sourced from organic farms in the UK to produce flours. The grain used is grown to Organic standards, meaning that you can trace each batch of flour produced back to the field it came from.

The flour can be used to make a variety of baked products from bread to scones and cakes. Small batch milling ensures the freshest flour possible for the best baking results.

Why not visit the newly refurbished shop and browse the range of flours and other exquisite gift ideas all sustainably sourced with an environmental theme?
