LICENCE SUMMARY

Bake Diversity Bread® Under Licence

Diversity Bread® is protected — not to exclude, but to empower. This licence is for small, real bakeries: bricks-and-mortar shops, microbakeries, and Sourdough School Diploma graduates. It allows you to bake and sell Diversity Bread® using the Botanical Blend system, as long as you follow a few key principles.

To be licensed, your bread must:

• Use at least 20% Botanical Blend flour (Triple X, Botanical Blend No.2, or 0+)
• Be made with a live sourdough starter
• Ferment for at least 18 hours (ambient or retarded)
• Be made with flour free from glyphosate (preferably organic or regenerative)
• Include a QR code for customers to learn more at diversitybread.com
• Follow the Baking as Lifestyle Medicine Protocol — a seven-stage process that’s about more than baking. It’s about nourishment, sharing, and system change.

Preferably, you’ll use stoneground, non-fortified flour, but we understand not every bakery can.

This licence allows you to use the terms:

• Diversity Bread®
• Botanical Blend®
• Baking as Lifestyle Medicine ™

It covers loaves, but also things like sandwiches, baguettes, and pizza — as long as the core standards are met.

There are no health claims allowed (except for the Proven Bread™ , which is reserved for clinical use by Dr Vanessa Kimbell).

Licence Fees:

• Under 10 tonnes of Diversity Bread per year: £1 flat fee
• Over 10 tonnes: £1,000 base licence + £50 per tonne
• Diploma graduates may apply for a student licence at £1 (limited to <10 tonnes/year)

Every loaf funds system change. All licence income funds scholarships and supports education.
