Discover the goodness of freshly milled ancient grain
We bake Ancient Grain bread starting from fresh-milling ancient grain Einkorn and using natural sourdough to make bread that has the ancient flavourful taste of nature’s oldest wheat. Our bread retains all of the wholesome goodness of freshly-milled flour - nature's vitamin - that will allow you to eat bread freely the way the “staff of life” was meant to be.
Why Einkorn? Why Freshly Milled?
Get ready to dive into the delicious story of our bread. We are not just another bakery – we are a bread mission, starting a revival of primitive wheat through our freshly baked Einkorn bread. Your health is our mission, one bite at a time.
Why do we bake with Einkorn? It is so flavourful! It has a safe form of gluten that most gluten-free can eat. It is higher in vitamins and proteins than modern wheat.
Why do we freshly mill our flour? We discovered animal studies that showed eating aged flour caused sterility by the fourth generation. Since the advent of centralized milling, there have been more diseases in human health. Maybe there's a connection?
So our small mom and pop bakery started because we wanted to make healthy food a lifestyle. When our community started asking for this nutritious grain too- The Einkorn Shoppe was born.
