Farming and gardening in this way nurtures the vitality of the soil through a practical application of a holistic and spiritual understanding of nature.

Our Resilience Blend is comprised of heritage varieties selected for their suitability to thrive in local organic farmland, how they interact together as a blend regarding their baking properties, and their flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy growing a blend of wheats, this offers an insurance policy against changing climate conditions and evolving plant diseases – the reason for calling it our \u003cstrong\u003e“Resilience Blend”\u003c\/strong\u003e. For example, where one variety might be susceptible to a particular disease, the other varieties may not be affected and the harvest survives (unlike with a monoculture). Over time, the wheat population adapts to the land and weather, with the most successful varieties thriving. Heritage varieties have deeper root systems so they can extract nutrients from deeper in the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt reintroduces biodiversity to agriculture through growing a number of wheat varieties, to move away from the current monoculture of single varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt could take several years to fine tune a blend of wheat for a specific environment. The guiding principle is that “chaos” wheat is better equipped to deal with any chaotic climate events it may encounter. The Bread Lab coined this term “chaos wheat” to describe maslins as presenting “genetic chaos in a field” (Stephen Jones, former Bread Lab director). This technique of growing multiple varieties as an insurance policy is nothing new, and has been employed by farmers over the centuries to help them deal with uncertainties from climate and disease.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur Resilience Blend flour is milled from a variety of populations, including Millers Choice and Torth y Tir, all farmed organically by a group of UK farmers (currently including Ampney Brook, Abbey Home Farm, Goodwood Estate, Lower Dean Farm, and Linley Estate). All the growers work to improve soil health and to support the environment through organic farming practices. \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe class this flour as an “all-purpose” style flour due to the delicate gluten and relatively lower protein content. If you are an experienced baker you can make fantastic sourdough with it. If you are a beginner, it would be suitable for yeasted breads and tin loaves, rolls, and baguettes. It could also be used in cakes where you want some flavour from bran, and pairs well with flavours such as brown sugar and plum, ginger, rhubarb, and fruit cakes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecipes: \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca title=\"T80 Brown Sugar and Fig cake\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shipton-mill.com\/blogs\/journal\/figs-and-brown-sugar-cake-with-t80-resilience-blend-heritage-flour\"\u003eT80 Brown Sugar and Fig Cake\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003ca title=\"french baguette recipe with T80 flour\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shipton-mill.com\/blogs\/journal\/t80-heritage-baguette-recipe\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eT80 Heritage baguette \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Shipton Mill","offers":[{"title":"1kg","offer_id":55980971131254,"sku":"F80.D10HR\/ORG.1","price":3.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"16kg","offer_id":55980971164022,"sku":"F80.10HR\/ORG.16","price":38.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/5495\/8081\/files\/shipton-mill-flour-organic-heritage-t80-flour-chaos-blend-flour-online-direct-from-the-mill-1180904117.jpg?v=1753290563"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/5495\/8081\/collections\/shipton-mill-string-bread-flour-flour-online-direct-from-the-mill-41833320841473.jpg?v=1717772641","url":"https:\/\/ie.shipton-mill.com\/collections\/speciality-rare-flour\/category_cake.oembed","provider":"Shipton Mill","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
