Housed in the Farm Store building, our certified organic Bakery is well-known for its organic breads and bakery products. The flours, grains, nuts, seeds, and fruits used in the bakery goods are all Biodynamic® or organically grown, and the wheat is milled daily to ensure freshness.
Our bakery products, all thoughtfully and carefully made by our bakers, include a variety of sourdough and yeasted breads, rolls (both sourdough and yeasted), granolas, scones, muffins, several types of cookies, and a host of other treats. These freshly-made and satisfying goods are sold at the Farm Store, are available from our market stands at the Union Square and Inwood Greenmarkets in New York City, and can be ordered by our CSA members. A select list of items are also available via Wholesale.
Bakery FAQs
What do you have that is wheat-free?
Our Sourdough Rye and Black Forrest Rye bread, is made with 100% rye flour. Our Whole Grain Sourdough Spelt bread is made with 100% whole spelt flour. Rye Spelt Sourdough is made with 50% of each grain. The rye flour is ground fresh in our bakery!
What do you have that is sugar-free?
All of our breads except for Challah, Cinnamon Raisin, and Bagel Bread are sugar free. Our granolas have no added sugar, sweetened with honey or maple syrup instead.
What do you have that is yeast-free?
All of our Sourdough breads are made without baker’s yeast.
What do you have that is gluten-free?
All of our baked goods contain some gluten, some people with wheat sensitivities find that they enjoy our sourdough rye breads and/or our granolas. Although spelt is a close relative of wheat, sourdough spelt can also be a good alternative for some people.
What do you have that is whole wheat / no white flour?
Our Sunflower Flax Sourdough Breads, Baguettes, and Rolls are 8 parts whole wheat flour to 3 parts white flour, so they are mostly, but not entirely, whole wheat. Spelt and Rye breads (except for Jewish Rye) are white flour free.
What is spelt?
An ancient cousin of wheat, spelt hasn’t been hybridized to the extent that wheat has and has a pleasant, grainy wild taste. The seeds from the spelt plant are ground into flour (similar to the way wheat is processed) but spelt has more protein and many people find it easier to digest than wheat.
What products are made with ingredients sourced directly from the farm?
All of our rye is grown on the farm, consequently the Rye-Spelt, Black Forrest Rye, and Whole Rye sourdoughs are largely derived from the farm. We also use milk and buttermilk from our dairy. This goes into our buttermilk biscuits, muffins, scones, croissants, and Irish soda bread.
