Organic methods: no synthetic pesticides or fertiliser, not certified
In their words · translated
“De molen maalt al koren sinds de 15e eeuw. ... De bijzondere molen wordt aangedreven door het water van de Sint Jansbeek en produceert zo meel op 100% duurzame wijze.”
The mill has been grinding grain since the 15th century. ... The special mill is driven by the water of the Sint Jansbeek and so produces flour in a 100% sustainable way.
“In de Molenschuur kun je terecht voor allerhande bak- en meelproducten zoals broodbakmix, cakemix en meel. ... De molen is SKAL-gecertificeerd, wat betekent dat we ook biologisch meel malen.”
In the Molenschuur you can find all kinds of baking and flour products such as bread mix, cake mix and flour. ... The mill is SKAL-certified, which means that we also grind organic flour.
Molenplaats Sonsbeek is Natuurcentrum Arnhem's visitor centre on the edge of Park Sonsbeek, where De Witte Watermolen, a water mill that has ground grain since the fifteenth century, still mills flour.
The mill is driven by the water of the Sint Jansbeek and also supplies flour to bakeries in and around Arnhem, among them Bakkerista. Their website says the mill is SKAL-certified and also grinds organic flour; what qualifies it here is the milling itself, done by the water of the Sint Jansbeek. Their website does not say where the grain comes from or which of the products are milled here rather than bought in.
Flour, bread mixes and cake mixes are sold in the Molenschuur at Zijpendaalseweg 24A. The mill itself is open on Wednesdays from 10:00 to 16:00 and Sundays from 12:00 to 16:00, when the millers show visitors the wooden wheels and shafts at work.
