Why is delivery expensive for 1kg?
I mill in Totnes, if you live in Totnes I will deliver it on my bike or you can come and pick it up. For all other deliveries - actually anyone can come and pick up - I use UPS their small package rate is £7, it then climbs slowly, for example 4kg is 50p more and 6kg is 70p more. So if you can get a few people together, or start baking loads, then it will be more economical.

How much do you pay farmers?
We pay all our farmers between £450 and £700 a tonne. We believe that the farmers are key to the quality of our soil, the nutrient level of our soil. Therefore the taste and quality of our plants and grain. Meaning the products you make will be much tastier.
