As we wrap up our very first year of Bode Bread Co., my heart is so full.
What started as a little idea in March turned into something bigger than I ever imagined—because of you.
✨ Over 250 amazing customers
✨ 350+ orders lovingly baked and fulfilled
✨ More than 4,000 sourdough loaves, cookies, bagels, scones & treats
✨ 6 beginner sourdough classes teaching others to bake from the heart
✨ Quarterly donations back into our community:
• Q2: A Kid’s Place
• Q3: Miss Manatee Softball League
• Q4: Humane Society at Lakewood Ranch
Every order, every kind message, every share, every pickup smile—thank you for supporting this dream and allowing me to give back while doing what I love. This business exists because of your encouragement and trust, and I’m endlessly grateful.
🗓 Baking resumes January 9th
📦 Orders must be placed by January 7th
Looking ahead to 2026, we will be moving into our new home this spring, which will mean a short pause in baking while we get the new kitchen up and running. I promise to keep you updated here and via email with any closures—and to get back to baking for you as quickly as possible.
From my kitchen to your table, thank you for an unforgettable first year. 🤍
Here’s to more sourdough, more community, and more good things ahead.
