Doves Farm

A pioneer of the organic movement in the 1970s, Doves Farm doesn’t just produce top-quality flour – it’s responsible for reintroducing rare ancient grains to the UK. Read on to find out more about the brand and see how we've used their products in fantastic seasonal recipes.

In the 1970s, Doves Farm founders Clare and Michael Marriage decided to go organic with their mixed arable farm, a bold move that made them one of the first organic wheat farms in the country. Today, Doves Farm has turned into a 350-acre organic operation and made the business the UK's number one organic flour brand. But that's not all; around twenty years ago they also started growing rye, spelt and einkorn, emmer, rare ancient grains that provide a completely different flavour profile to flour and which had, until their intervention, all but disappeared from the UK. 

With an enormous twenty-four organic flours in their range today, Doves Farm truly have a product for every baker and every recipe, with everything from plain white flour to malthouse bread flour, as well as ancient grain breakfast flakes and fruity oat biscuits. 

We've been working with Doves Farm to create some exclusive GBC Kitchen recipes, showcasing the different ways in which their organic flours can be used for delicious sweet treats.
