Organic Flour
Honouring William and Henry’s commitment to quality, Sampson David Marriage trained at the Kent Jones and Amos laboratory at Chitty’s Mill in Dover before the war. He sold wholemeal flour to the health store trade for many years, sourcing wheat from organic famers for this from the 1950’s onwards. In 1986 Marriage’s started milling all organic strong flour for home bakers. Supporting sustainability, wildlife, and soil fertility early on, he shaped the future of Marriage’s. His son, George Marriage, current company Chairman, chaired the Organic Food Federation for several years.
