Bread oven at Lindens Kindergarten

Posted by on Sep 19 2008 | Baking Bread with Children, bread, bread oven, workshops

There was an  badly cracked, old bread oven in this magical play-garden. With the enthusiastic help of Nuno and Stewart , we recycled the clay from the old oven, added more sand and straw and rebuilt a new oven atop the same cotswold stone base. The shape developed as we worked the cob. After a few days working and contemplating a temple form seemed to emerge, a temple for the transformation of bread. This is now a vital part of the children’s play area

I want to offer special thanks to Shipton Mill who have generously donated organic flour for my workshops, classes and events. Quality ingredients make all the difference.
