RISE

RISE – Rye-based Initiative for Sustainable & Equitable Nutrition

RISE brings together a German farmer, a Belgian mill and a Dutch artisan baker to create a healthier and more sustainable rye bread. The rye is grown using regenerative farming practices that help protect soils, biodiversity and natural resources. The whole grain is then carefully processed into a fibre-rich flour, making better use of the nutritious outer part of the grain. Finally, the flour is used to develop naturally fermented sourdough bread with good taste and texture. The project will test the bread’s nutritional qualities, including fibre content and its effect on blood sugar, and prepare the products for the market. From field to loaf, RISE connects farming, food innovation and craftsmanship across the Meuse-Rhine region.
