The School Of Artisan Food

The School of Artisan Food is a registered charity dedicated to teaching skills in all aspects of sustainable and artisan food production. The School, based on the beautiful Welbeck Estate in Nottinghamshire, has specialist training facilities where students learn from a team of industry experts. At the home of artisan food production, we believe that food created using traditional, heritage methods not only tastes better, but it also has an important positive impact on our wellbeing and on the environment. By sharing knowledge, teaching skills and connecting like-minded people, the School inspires students to become part of a thriving artisan food community. We offer an excellent opportunity for people of all skill levels to expand their knowledge through a wide range of short courses and a full-time six month Advanced Diploma in Artisan Baking. Our range of exciting subject areas include: baking and patisserie, brewing and drinks, butchery, cheesemaking, chocolate, curing and smoking, cooking, food business start-ups, food photography, foraging, ice cream, and fermentation and pickling. The School has an outstanding reputation for the quality of training it provides with courses being taught by some of the most skilled and experienced artisan producers and tutors. As well as up-skilling existing and aspiring producers and teaching enthusiastic amateurs and complete newcomers, we are especially keen to provide opportunities for the local community.
