Bake With The Hands Of An Artisan And The Mind Of A Clinician

Set within the walled gardens of Dr Vanessa Kimbell’s beautiful Victorian home in rural Northamptonshire, The Sourdough School is home to the Proven Bread Programme, teaching the art and science of nutrition, the gut microbiome and fermentation in bread.
