PANARY Craft Baking Courses

I have been an artisan baker for 45 years, and a teacher of breadmaking courses for over 20 years.

I established PANARY in 1997, and now teach an array of craft baking courses in a working watermill near Shaftesbury in Dorset. Much of the flour used in the courses is sourced locally from the mill.
