Wheat is harvested from the field as “wheat berries.” In order to make the flour, we send the wheat berries through our electric mill just minutes before we make our dough! It’s as fresh as it gets AND you get to savor more of the nutritional value that the whole wheat berries offer! Win-win!

Once grain is milled into flour and exposed to oxygen, some of its nutrients begin to degrade over time. We want as much of that natural goodness as we can get, so we mill our flour just moments before mixing up our dough!

The anatomy of a grain is simple—the bran, the endosperm, and the germ. The bran and germ are especially nutrient dense. When we mill our wheat berries, we use the entire grain. No sifting here!

Whole grain flour is nutrient dense! Traditional flour that sits on a shelf in the grocery store has to be sifted in order to remain shelf stable. In most cases, the wheat bran and wheat germ are sifted out, and along with that, many of the nutrients. Our freshly milled whole grain flour maintains the naturally-occurring calcium, B vitamins, iron, potassium (and much more!).

Spelt is a member of the wheat family and is considered an ancient grain. It has been cultivated since biblical times! Spelt produces an unbelievably fluffy flour which creates the softest loaf of bread you can imagine! The flavor is slightly sweet and nutty. There’s a reason we call it Daily Bread—you’re going to want a slice every single day!

No. Spelt is a member of the wheat family and contains gluten. If you have Celiac disease, you will want to avoid spelt.

We have simple ingredients that we’ve specifically sourced to give you excellent quality: 100% freshly milled whole spelt flour, high-quality honey, 100% extra virgin olive oil, sunflower lecithin, Real salt, water, and yeast.

We are firm believers in eating bread FRESH. Hot out of the oven? Even better. But when that’s not possible, keep your bread in an airtight container or bag on the countertop. Don’t refrigerate — it loses its beautiful texture more quickly. Plus, who likes cold bread? That said, buying an extra loaf and popping it in the freezer for a few weeks (up to a couple of months) is a perfect option! Just pull out that loaf a few hours before you want to eat it and you’ll hardly notice a difference!
