Learn and Share Practical Skills

Radical Bakers Summer Gathering 2021 will be 8-11th July at Crabapple Community. We have the Licence and Crabapple have said they are happy to host us again.

Tickets on sale from the event page only.

Radical Bakers Gatherings are friendly weekend camping events with a chance to learn and share practical skills. Focused discussions and hands-on workshops during the day lead into quality live music and dancing on the Green Dragon Solar Stage in the evenings. Our Summer Gathering is at Crabapple Community near Shrewsbury, one of the oldest housing co-ops in the country. Our Autumn Harvest Camp is in a beautiful valley in Snowdonia National Park in Wales.

Practical skills for sustainable living

Radical Bakers Gatherings are small, friendly weekends with a focus on learning and sharing skills. We believe in personal responsibility and empowerment. We want people to take away skills and information that they can use to improve their lives, and the lives of those around them. Our goal is to live in a more sustainable way.
