Wood-fired breads

A next-generation bakery is being shaped and developed in Woolsery

Crafting a new experience

Fire & Fern is currently in development. A 21st-century love story to the long tradition of British breadmaking in the UK, it’ll be constructed using traditional cob technique and centre on a huge wood-fired oven.

Rustic and reimagined

The bakery team will craft a swathe of refashioned and traditionally rustic treats with British flavour profiles. Visit to pick up loaves plus British flatbreads dressed with foraged mushrooms and own-reared meats and veggies.

First-light loaves

Visitors will be able to swing by at first light for a coffee and pastry at the counter when they pick up their fresh loaf, while the bakery will also supply bread and pastries for Wulfheard Manor and The Farmers Arms.
