YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The last thing you would expect at a drug rehabilitation centre is the smell of fresh bread wafting out of a commercial kitchen filled with people laughing and talking while kneading sourdough.

But at the HOPE Springs, Community Farm in Geraldton, 400 kilometres north of Perth, baking artisan sourdough is proving a successful form of therapy for participants attempting to overcome addiction.

The farm is based on the same model used at San Patrignano, a world-renown recovery community in Italy.

It is all about helping participants who have lost their way, by teaching them new skills that boost their self-esteem and teach them to respect themselves and others.
