The benefits of regenerative flour
At Good In Bread, everything we do starts with a simple belief: good bread begins with good ingredients. The flour we choose isn’t just about flavour or texture; it’s about the kind of food system we want to support. As a company, we care deeply about the impact our baking has on the environment, farmers, and ultimately on you, the person enjoying our bread.
And as a consumer, your choices matter too. Every loaf, bun or pastry you buy helps shape the future of farming. By choosing products made with responsibly grown ingredients, you support a food system that protects the soil beneath our feet and the ecosystems that sustain us all.
Understanding agricultural practices is crucial for making sustainable food choices. According to FAO, agriculture and land use are major contributors to food-related greenhouse gases. Therefore, it’s essential to prioritise eco-friendly farming methods.
That’s why we’re proud to bake with Shipton mill flour, a leader in regenerative agriculture. Their approach doesn’t just minimise harm; it actively improves soil health, boosts biodiversity, and nurtures more resilient landscapes.
This means the flour we use is not only better for the planet but also produces bread that’s incredibly flavourful and naturally nutritious. When you bite into our sourdough, you’re tasting the result of farming that gives more than it takes.
What is regenerative agriculture?
Regenerative farming is a sustainable agriculture approach that focuses on restoring soil health, enhancing biodiversity, and improving ecosystem resilience.
Farmers who adhere to regenerative practices use methods like:
- Crop rotation to reduce pests and maintain soil fertility
- Cover cropping to protect and enrich soil
- Minimal or no tillage to preserve soil structure and carbon stores
These methods help regenerate degraded land, increase soil carbon sequestration and promote long-term sustainability.
Regenerative agriculture focuses on restoring soil health
It’s agriculture that works with nature rather than against it, and that’s the kind of system we’re proud to support.
