Tucked away on the coast of the Garden County, Hedge School Wicklow is dedicated to reviving and celebrating the honest craft of traditional bread-making. Founded by artisan baker Miche, Hedge School offers popular hands-on baking courses and intensive masterclasses designed for everyone from inquisitive beginners to aspiring artisans.

Through these immersive workshops, Miche demystifies the science of wild fermentation, dough handling, and the tactile joy of baking from scratch—covering everything from wild-yeast sourdoughs to traditional Irish and European regional breads. Recipes and workshop menus frequently incorporate sustainably sourced flours, seasonal garden produce, and wild-foraged botanicals.

While The Bread Shed serves as the creative micro-bakery hub producing small-batch bakes exclusively for a closed community group, the core mission of Hedge School is centered on education and connection—offering a welcoming space to learn, bake, and celebrate slow, honest food that is deeply rooted in the Wicklow landscape.
