We are a family that loves to bake naturally fermented, organic, sourdough breads and bagels made with Washington grown flours and share them with our community on Vashon Island. Thomas, the baker, experiments with various local flours to achieve naturally fermented loaves of crusty, delicious bread with unique flavor. Washington grown is just the beginning when it comes to the grains we use. Never stored in chemical preservatives and never doused in herbicides, our freshly milled grains from Vashon growers(as available), Chimacum Valley Grainery, Cairnspring Mills in Skagit Valley, Palouse Heritage, Moon Family Farm in Horse Heaven Hills, and Bluebird Grain Farms in Methow Valley are as clean as they come, never stored in chemicals. Each loaf matures over 3 days- long fermentation and fresh flours lead to a nutrient dense loaf. No commercial yeasts, no commodity flours, just wild fermentation for sublime flavor and outstanding nutritional value.
We share our sourdough breads, bagels, pizza dough, and other goodies at following locations:
