October is here, and we’re officially starting off the month with our Biergarten Binge menu!

Honestly, the best part of this week is that my new bread oven has been really impressing me. This means I'm able to open up a much bigger batch this time around, so hopefully everyone can grab what they want without things selling out so quickly!

I am still a bit limited with some of my equipment, but each week I invest back into the business so we will continue to grow. You're support helps me do that, so THANK YOU!!

The Sunday menu goes live at 9:00 AM over at TheRusticCharm.com and I'm so excited to bake for you all!

We’ve had a lot going on here at the bakery, and I’ve really struggled to keep up with social media (it’s definitely not my favorite! 😅).

My main focus lately has been transforming my home office into a bakery annex and testing out my new RM2020 from ...what an absolute beast of a machine created!

I wouldn’t be where I am today without this incredible baking community, especially for being such a supportive guide and role model as I grow.

And last but certainly not least, my “Framily”—which includes so many, but especially and .

This is a longtime dream coming to fruition. It isn’t without its challenges, but I’m loving every single step! Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. We’re truly on our way to bringing quality, accessible bread to our community!

Trying my hand 100% rye today, and the outlook is looking pretty great! 🤩 I've dreamed about making a loaf like this for months, but been too scared. This experience shocked me at how easy it was!

I strive to make quality bread accessible, so NO...I won't be charging $60 per loaf (IYKYK - look it up)! 😂

This is my first rye loaf ever, and I really enjoyed making this. I'm also proud to say I get this flour from Baker's Field Flour & Bread - so it's grown AND milled right here in Minnesota!!

If you’ve been waiting for the return of the Dubh Sourdough, you have one of my most loyal customers (Jerry) to thank.

For those who don't know what it is - think b**r and "Dubh" means black/dark in Gaelic. Read more about it on our menu!

Not only is it on tomorrow’s menu, but it’s also our official Monthly Special for October!

Plus, all October menus are officially up on our ordering site. Head over to preview next month's lineup, and be ready when the drop goes live Sunday at 9 AM!

Lastly - I have a little teaser for you...I'll share more about this later, but starting in October, our production increases!! This means we'll be less likely to sell out so quickly. Stay tuned for more on that in the coming days...

It took several rounds of testing and refinement, but I finally hit this one out of the park...just in time for tomorrow’s dough day!

This loaf was actually a special request from my husband, Brian...a challenge I happily accepted to bring his vision to life. I struggled to create that flavor-bomb of almond at first, but the cherry flavor was always present.

The main solution? I hand-fold rich almond almond paste and almond-soaked cherries directly into our signature Loff sourdough during final shaping. Every slice explodes with bright berry-nutty flavor, finished with a golden almond flour crust for that perfect, satisfying crunch.

We sold out fast this week, so set your alarms for the next drop and order early! 👇
