Laxey Glen Mills makes high-quality bread flour and other, speciality, flours using solely locally grown wheat from a dozen Manx farms.
Hailing from the Isle of Man, our flour is unique in the British Isles in that it doesn’t include any additives, as prescribed by the UK Bread and Flour Regulations for other mills.
In supporting local farmers, and paying a fair price for wheat, the Mill is encouraging the continuation of mixed and arable farming, which contributes to the Island’s landscape, biodiversity and biosphere.
We regularly meet our growers and the Manx National Farmers’ Union to ensure we work together to retain a sustainable farming community.
Our products come in paper packaging and don’t impact on the environment.
We employ six people and supply flour to bakeries employing more than 100 people, so contribute to a resilient economy.
Our imposing building is more than 150 years old and we are mindful of its heritage and are considering opening it up to visitors.
We are at the heart of the community, participate in the Food Assembly and even sponsor a world championship – the World Bonnag Championships, held annually in Dalby.
