Your grocery store bread has 25 ingredients. Ours have three.

You've been reading labels. You've been trying to do right by your family.

Somewhere along the way, you started wondering if the sourdough in that bag was actually sourdough.

It isn't. And that's not your fault.

Flip over most "sourdough" loaves at the grocery store. You'll find commercial yeast, vinegar, sugar, dough conditioners, and preservatives — legally allowed to carry the sourdough label because the FDA has no standard protecting the word.

No live starter. No real fermentation. Just the word on the bag.

Our bread has flour, water, and salt — plus a live starter we feed every day. Every loaf ferments for 24 hours before it ever sees the oven. The natural acidity from that fermentation is the preservative. The heritage grain is the flavor. There's nothing to hide because there's nothing we added.

You've been paying a premium for bread that isn't what it claims.
That's not right — and it's exactly why we bake the way we do.

We know what it feels like to stand in the bread aisle, read every label, and still not really know what you're bringing home.

You shouldn't have to wonder. That's why we're here.

Baked by Angie Gillett.

We didn't plan to become bakers.

We started because we couldn't find bread worth feeding our own family. The store stuff made us feel lousy. The ingredient lists were alarming. So we learned to bake and then we learned that the wheat matters as much as the process.

That led us to heritage grains: White Sonora, brought to North America by Spanish missionaries in the 1600s. Rouge de Bordeaux, the original wheat of French bakers, nearly extinct by the 1990s, brought back by seed savers. Our flour comes from Barton Springs Mill, a Texas stone-ground mill with direct relationships with the farmers growing these varieties.

What we sell at the market is what sits on our own table.

First time at the market? Ask for a sample. We'd rather you taste it than take our word for it.
