The Free Bakers Association (Die Freien Bäcker) was founded in 2011 as an independent professional organisation of artisan bakers and confectioners in Hanover, Germany. Through their work they promote the preservation and improvement of soil fertility, the cultivation of heterogeneous wheat populations and regional organic value chains. The Free Bakers are one of the organisers of the BROT-BRÜCKE (Bread Bridge), a relief action bringing bread to people in Ukraine since the Russian invasion in February 2022.
Rural Europe Takes Action | Much More Than Our Daily Bread
We want to preserve our sovereignty and credibility as food artisans. We want our craft
to be suitable for our grandchildren – a creative, meaningful cultural technique.
