Digital and real: Second World Flour Day will celebrated March 20, 2021
The second World Flour Day will be celebrated on March 20, 2021. This day is dedicated to one of the most important foods of humankind, a staple that has nourished people every day for millennia, contributing to health, well-being and prosperity. It has had great influence on the political, economic and cultural development of societies. This commemorative day was inaugurated by the FlourWorld Museum in Wittenburg in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany.
“This year World Flour Day will again be observed under special conditions,” says idea-giver and initiator Carsten Blum. “Last year face-to-face meetings were likewise very restricted. Nevertheless, farmers, millers and the entire flour processing industry, from New York to Sydney, from Buenos Aires to Mexico City, from Istanbul to Moscow, marked the day with many creative and digital activities. So this year again we're encouraging all participants in the value chain to commemorate the importance of flour and the role it plays,” says Carsten Blum, founder.
