NEW WHEAT!!
We’ve been on the hunt for more farmers to grow grain for our local flour, but sometimes you have to make an executive decision! Rhonda decided to bring in some grain from our longtime friend, John.
When you work with stone-milled grain, every wheat is different. That means Rhonda gets to put on her detective hat and figure out how each new grain behaves, what it needs, and how to make the most of it.
In this video, she’s talking about some of the challenges that come with working with a new wheat, as well as some exciting adventures ahead!
We’re still looking for more local farmers who are interested in growing grain with us. If you know someone who might be a good fit, we’d love to hear from you!
Thank you, as always, for your continued support of local grain, local farmers, and what we’re building together. It truly means so much to us!

Local Whole Grains
Did you know that locally grown whole grains can be packed with incredible flavor?!
We’re so lucky to live in a region with such amazing biodiversity, which helps us grow some truly flavorful and unique grains right here in our community.
If you’ve never tried local whole grains, we highly recommend giving Beck’s Bakery whole grain bread a try! It’s flavorful, wholesome, and made with love.
And if you saw our last post, you know we’re still on the hunt for land where we can plant more grain. Our goal is to keep growing and producing right here in our community, and we’d love your help making that possible!
Have questions about whole grains, growing grain, or what we’re up to? Ask away!
We hope you’ll give some of our local whole
grains a try!

WE LOVE WHEAT!
Rhonda’s science background and passion for whole wheat go hand in hand!
In this video, Rhonda walks us through the life of wheat—from what it looks like and how it grows to when we hope to harvest it. Growing quality wheat is about so much more than simply planting seeds. Every step requires careful planning, attention, and the right conditions.
Rhonda works hard every step of the way to ensure we’re bringing you the highest-quality whole wheat for the breads and treats you love.
We hope you enjoy learning a little more about the journey from field to table!
And don’t forget to place your order for our delicious handcrafted breads and treats, lovingly made by Rhonda and Laurel!

GOOD BREAD!
Here’s Part 4 of our How to Make Good Bread (According to Rhonda) series!
In this video, Rhonda shares the “fluff” things you don’t need to bake a great loaf. After years of practice and millions of loaves made, she’s learned that good bread doesn’t require fancy equipment or complicated techniques.
Rhonda has baked bread almost anywhere, anytime, and with just about anything—and she’s picked up plenty of practical wisdom along the way.
If you have questions or want to learn more about bread baking, let us know! We’d love to chat.
And don’t forget to place your bread order for this week!

GRAIN & FLOUR ANNOUNCEMENT
This isn’t an announcement we were hoping to make, but we’re temporarily out of flour.
Rhonda has always believed in being transparent about what’s happening in the bakery because you deserve to know what’s going on behind the scenes.
The good news is that flour will be back soon! In the meantime, we’re continuing to connect with farmers and secure our next supply. Running a small business comes with its share of challenges, and we’re adapting the best we can.
Don’t worry—we still have plenty of delicious breads, crackers, and pastries waiting for you! Stop by and see us at the Arcata Farmers’ Market.
And if you know Rhonda, you know she always finds a way to make things happen.
Thank you so much for your continued support, patience, and encouragement. We appreciate this community more than you know!

COLLEGE OF THE REDWOODS COLLABORATION
If you didn’t know, Rhonda loves collaborating with our local colleges and universities!
Finding locally grown grain in Humboldt County isn’t always easy, so a few months ago Rhonda connected with Syliss, who runs the Agriculture Program at College of the Redwoods.
Together, they’ve planted grain in Shively, California, and we’re hoping to harvest next month!
We also captured some beautiful footage at the CR farm, and we can’t wait to share it with you. Stay tuned for our upcoming College of the Redwoods farm video!
