Before the bakery opens, our day begins with the first mix for the Classic Organic Country Loaf. Flour, water, salt, and starter come together slowly, giving the dough time to build strength and flavor.

Through the morning, we fold and rest the dough in small batches. That steady rhythm shapes the open crumb and crisp crust that make this loaf a daily favorite.

The 11:00 bake time is a guide for planning a visit. Fermentation and oven conditions can shift the schedule slightly, so the bread on the counter may vary from day to day.

The bakery will be open throughout the spring holiday, with fresh loaves arriving from 11:00 each day.

We are baking our classic country sourdough alongside a small seasonal selection. Quantities are limited, so we recommend arriving early for the best selection.

The daily lineup may shift as fermentation and oven conditions change, so some varieties can leave the counter earlier than others.

Thank you for making Wheat & Yeast part of your spring table.

Wild yeast gives our sourdough its patient rhythm and complex flavor.

Each day, we feed the starter, fold the dough, and let time do the work.

As fermentation develops, natural acids and aromas build gradually, shaping the open crumb and crisp crust of the finished loaf.

Temperature and humidity change that pace, so we watch the dough closely and bake when it is ready rather than forcing a fixed schedule.

Every loaf begins with flour chosen for flavor, strength, and the people who grow it.

Organic flour gives us a dependable base for slow fermentation, helping the dough hold water and develop structure over time.

Protein, freshness, and the character of the grain all shape how the starter moves and how the finished crumb feels.

We still adjust each mix by touch, because thoughtful flour is the beginning of the process rather than a shortcut around it.

Our spring mugwort loaf is made with a small amount of fresh local mugwort.

The leaves are prepared gently and folded through the dough so their herbal character stays balanced rather than bitter.

Slow fermentation rounds the earthy aroma and gives the loaf a tender crumb beneath its deeply baked crust.

Enjoy it with cultured butter, mild cheese, or a little honey while the seasonal flavor is at its freshest.

Cheese and olives make a savory pairing for an afternoon snack.

Briny black olives and pockets of melted cheese are folded through slow-fermented dough, balancing tangy depth with a rich, tender crumb.

Warm slices are especially good beside tomato soup or a crisp salad, while a quick toast brings back the crust the following day.

Serve the loaf slightly warm, and keep the cut side covered so the crumb stays soft between slices.
