Part of being intentionally small is the ability to hand deliver loaves when needed. You can swing by my place in Meyer’s or I will deliver it to you (in Meyers).

If you are a new customer, I’ll reach out directly and make sure you get your bread. We have a small community, getting it from me to you shouldn’t be difficult.

Won’t be home during the delivery window? Consider placing an empty cooler near your front door for me to leave the bread.

I accept Venmo: @thebreadsmith
or cash.

I make what inspires me. It might be a triple sesame loaf, Pain au Gruyere, or Cranberry Fig Cardamom. I’ll give you a heads up on next month’s loaf.

Honestly, I’m trying to keep this simple and personal. I don’t want to post my phone number on the site for privacy, therefore when you sign up, only you get my info.

As for ordering, I am able to personally take each order and answer any questions. I want to get to know my community. Get to know you.

No. I’ll give you some for free. Just ask.

Practice and patience. Plenty of both.

Here are my recommendations:
Take baking courses at SFBI.
Read as many books on baking bread as possible.
Bake often.
Reach out to other bakers (like me).
YouTube.
Stay off Instagram or the like. There are too many points of view—find your own.
Don’t aim to make someone else’s bread. Make yours.
