Me (Rhonda) posing with Lemon Barley Loaf, Hearth-style Toasted Barley Bread, and Barley Rugbrod! Some of the baked goods made at the Bodacious Barley baking class with Sarah Owens and Andrew Ross (and team) at Oregon State University Bread Lab. Wonderful instruction, tasty recipes, and nerdy bread science. I'm a naked Barley convert!

UPDATE FROM LAST THURSDAY!
Rhonda’s life is always busy, fun, and full of exciting things!
Between baking delicious loaves and running a bakery, she somehow manages to fit about a million other things into her schedule!
In this video, Rhonda catches us up on what she was up to two weeks ago, what kept her busy last week, and all the exciting things happening this week!
Seriously, how does she do it all? Maybe it really is the power of whole grains!
Thanks for watching and keeping up with Rhonda’s busy bakery life!

Inclusion-maxxing!
100% Whole Grain Fruit Bread - this is a riff on Ian Lowe's ian lowe formula. It changes every season, but the whole oranges, ginger, white pepper & cinnamon are a constant. This time, I added fresh persimmons, Granny Smith apples also dried Jona Gold apples, figs, dates, raisins and apricots. We'll have this at the NCGA Farmers' Market tomorrow (Saturday)...and it always sells out fast!
The base flour is dry farmed hard red wheat, Hollis, grown by CR Shively Farm, stone milled at the bakery...with nothing sifted off. Also a touch of whole grain rye from Eel River Farms. All organic!

GRAIN HARVEST AT COLLEGE OF THE REDWOODS’ SHIVLEY FARM!
There’s something special about seeing local grain come to life!
Every clip in this video was filmed by our farmers, giving us a glimpse into the hard work, dedication, and care that go into making this project happen.
Rhonda has been working alongside Silas and his wonderful team at the CR Shivley Farm to help bring this grain project to life. Together, they’re contributing to a growing local grain economy and helping strengthen our agricultural community.
So much happens behind the scenes, and this video captures just a small piece of all the work that goes into growing and harvesting grain right here in our community.
We hope you enjoy watching this little glimpse of the harvest!
Thank you for watching, and thank you for continuing to support local farmers, local grain, and our growing agricultural community. Every bit of support makes a difference!

Dick Taylor Cacao Nibs!
One of the things that makes Beck’s Bakery so warm and inviting is our owner, Rhonda, who puts so much heart into everything she does!
Community means so much, especially in small towns. And one of the most special things about being a small business is seeing how local businesses support and work together behind the scenes!
This video gives you a little glimpse of that teamwork! We’re showing Dick Taylor cacao nibs being dropped off for Rhonda to work on getting the moisture level as low as possible. It’s just one small part of the care, collaboration, and craftsmanship that go into creating something delicious!
We love being part of a community that supports one another!
Be sure to check out Dick Taylor Craft Chocolate for some delicious chocolate, and stop by Beck’s Bakery booth to see what yummy treats we have waiting for you!
Shop local, support small businesses, and spread a little sweetness!

Hailee from the NCGA Harvest Hub just picked up 300 # of dry farmed hard red wheat flour grown by the CR Shively Farm. We milled it in-house on the bakery stone mill. It is going to a local Rancheria to be distributed to tribal members. This is what a Humboldt County grain economy looks like!

We will have flour available at the Saturday NCGS Farmer's Market. Order online to reserve yours! Link in profile.

WHAT IS STONE-MILLED?
Ever wondered what “stone-milled” really means?
Simply put, it’s grain that’s ground between two stones—and here at Becks Bakery, we have our very own stone mill!
This may be an old video from last year, but the process is still the same. We’re resharing it because it’s that time of year again: time to maintain our mill!
Rhonda does this about once a year, and it’s quite the process! Luckily, we have a strong crew of women who know how to get the job done.
Here’s a little behind-the-scenes peek at our stone-dressing process—the careful maintenance that keeps our mill working its best.
We hope you enjoy watching and learning a little more about what goes into our stone-milled flour!
And, of course, we hope you’ll give some of our flour a try for yourself!
