Our daily bread should help, not harm, health

One thins we are serious about is that things need to change. The food we eat is being dominated by global companies who produce food, and bread that is harming human health and the planet. This has to stop.

When you become a member you are are joining a food justice movement.

We have a passion for disruption

The thin is that you can learn to bake for free, anywhere, and there are thousands of free recipes, courses and tutorials online to learn to make sourdough, but this isn’t about big holes in your bread. Our Club is about social change, and you will learn through a structured evidence based Protocol, developed over 20 years, how to bake eat and share bread as Lifestyle Medicine.

You get to talk with us, and interact. You can speak to experts, in health, and nutrition and in baking.

It is about belonging and finding your tribe.

When you care you can sometimes feel like you are the only one. The food industry and the power dynamic wants us to give up, roll over and accept that we get ill. We do not accept that this is inevitable and we will be introducing you to other people who feel the same.

You will also be actively involved with influencing an alternative relationships of bread production, distribution, preparation, and consumption. In addition, as part of a social movements you start by learning to make your own bread, and feeding your family. Food activism starts in the kitchen table, but you will be actively involved in our goals and strategies to mobilize and challenge the structuring forces that generate and reproduce inequalities in the food system.
