The Bread Barn at The Healey Farm

The Bread Barn at The Healey Farm The Bread Barn™ at The Healey Farm — Franklin Township's community micro-bakery. Fresh sourdough, cinnamon rolls & scratch-made cookies. It’s a mission.

Open 1st & 3rd weekends, Sat & Sun 8–5. Preorder at https://thebreadbarn.farm/preorder 🍞 About Sheila – The Heart Behind The Bread Barn™

Sheila Healey didn’t set out to start a bakery. She just couldn’t stop baking bread. For years, she filled her home with the aroma of fresh sourdough, gifting loaves to friends, family, and anyone who needed a little comfort. The common response? “You should rea

lly be selling this.” So she did—and The Bread Barn™ was born. But this is more than a bakery. At The Healey Farm, we believe that bread brings people together. For Sheila, that’s the sweet spot—where good food and good company meet. Every loaf is a celebration of community, faith, and adventure. Whether it's a warm cinnamon roll on a market morning or a rustic sourdough shared around a family table, each item carries a story. By day, Sheila leads multiple institutional kitchens as a seasoned food & beverage director for a college, school, childcare center, and coffee shop—serving hundreds daily with excellence and heart. By night (and often early morning!), she’s handcrafting every roll, cookie, and boule that fills our little barn with joy. Faith fuels everything we do. Our family serves actively in our church, and we believe every adventure is guided by purpose. From traveling the world together to gathering our community around a simple loaf of bread, we’re grateful to do life—deliciously.

Before the crust turns golden, theres the quiet work: filling, folding, twisting, rolling—and shaping every bake by hand.

Here’s a little look behind the bake as we prepare for our next Bread Barn weekend, September 19–20. 🤎

Some loaves dont need much introduction.

A deeply golden crust, a tender crumb, and the kind of simple, honest flavor that belongs at the center of the table.

Our next Bread Barn weekend is September 1920—and this Rustic Sourdough is already giving us something to look forward to. 🤎

What would you put on the first warm slice?

Friends & Family—

In early 2025, we dreamed up the idea for The Bread Barn®, and in June of that year, its doors opened for the first time.

Since then, we’ve hosted twice-monthly market weekends, baking breads, cookies, desserts, and plenty of other goodies for our neighbors. And boy, did our community—and so many of our friends and family—show up to support us and take part in the journey.

Well, you know the Healeys: we’re always building, and we’re always looking for ways to share what we’ve learned to help others.

Today, we’re excited to introduce the next chapter: The Healey Farm Baking Co.

The Baking Co. is the educational and digital-products side of our family business—created to help home bakers make our recipes in their own kitchens and to equip aspiring cottage bakers with the recipes, tools, systems, and real-world guidance needed to explore building a bakery of their own.

The Bread Barn® has moved to **TheBreadBarn.farm**, where it will continue serving our local community with fresh baked goods and its regular market-weekend schedule.

Our new Baking Co. home is now live at **TheHealeyFarm.com**, and we’d love for you to take a look.

This new community is national from the start—and, we suspect, may become global with time. If you’ve always wished you could try our baked goods but live too far away to visit The Bread Barn, you can now purchase one of our recipes and bake it at home.

And if you’ve ever wondered whether starting a cottage bakery might be right for you, we invite you to explore the practical materials we’ve created to help you consider the opportunity and begin the journey with greater confidence.

However you choose to engage, thank you for following along, encouraging us, supporting our family, and being part of our story. We’re incredibly grateful—and very excited about what comes next.
