Real food made with whole ingredients. seeking to nourish our world, one loaf of bread at a time.
Almost twenty years ago I attended a lecture extolling the nutritional virtues of freshly milled whole grains. Once cracked open, the oils in the grains begin to oxidize. I was a young mother. I noticed that little children ate a diet of all sorts of things made with grain. Pancakes, toast, pbj, pasta, cookies, muffins. What if I could increase the nutritional value of their food by making one little change? I promptly bought a small mill and the rest is history. The kids get plenty of white flour and white sugar elsewhere. But at least the stuff they get at home is whole and real and nourishing. The rest is history.

Spelt Cinnamon Swirly
Same delicious spelt m & h bread, but with the magical addition of a super pungent cinnamon and sucanat swirl. A smaller loaf, because we all know that very good things come in small packages. Try this bread toasted with butter and a cup of tea on the side for delicious stress relief!

Freshly milled spelt and rye berries, water, raw almonds, raisins, yeast, Redmond's Real Salt. A bread to convert rye haters! Sweet, chewy, and a little taste of heaven when toasted up with butter in a cast iron skillet. Perfect foundation for a chicken salad sandwich.
Spelt Rye Caraway

Spelt Pumpernickel
Same thing as the Rye Caraway, but add extra black cocoa powder and blackstrap molasses for good measure. Dense, moist, chewy, rich. Slather with cream cheese or one of our local chevres for a true treat.
Better Than Trader Jo's Pizza Dough
Freshly milled Prairie Gold, water, olive oil, yeast, Redmond's Real Salt. Why better than TJ's? You know we all love Trader Joes! and truth be told, we bought their dough all the time, back in our Jersey days. But alas, no TJ's out here in the high Chihuahuan desert. We need not suffer! You can pick up your own tasty dough, take it home and construct most fabulous pizza that not only tastes good, but is filled only with nutrient-dense ingredients and absolutely nothing else. Except love. :)
