Andrew Gilhespy was inspired to create the Fresh Flour Company and our delicious range of pastas, noodles, crackers and biscuits, after attending Schumacher College and being mentored by some of the UK’s most visionary artisan millers and bakers.

Our philosophy is very simple. We only use English heritage and ancient wheats. We work in partnership with organic farmers. We pay them fairly and realistically. We mill the grains they grow into flour on our premises. We make all of our own products. We only use other ethically sourced, natural ingredients.

The result is an amazing range of foods that you will find a joy to explore.
Be prepared to be inspired and to have your taste buds reawakened.

Hand-made Pasta and Noodles

All our award winning pasta’s are milled and made by us in Devon, using stone ground UK wheat and filtered Dartmoor water. Mixed together in our pasta machines, it is shaped and cut using bronze dies. The result is a food that is both traditional and yet cutting-edge contemporary and with a remarkable taste.

Emmer
