fern + flour just gota little more local, one loaf at a time!
I’m so excited to share that fern + flour is now incorporating Virginia-grown and locally milled flour from Deep Roots Milling into our sourdough!
There’s something really special about knowing where your ingredients come from. For generations, regional grain production and local mills were essential parts of our communities. (Local history nerds like me know!) Choosing to incorporate locally grown grain into my bread is one small way to help support that tradition and the farmers and millers keeping it alive.
Regional grains bring unique flavors, character, and a connection to the land that is so important to me.
I’ll still be using the high-quality bread flour you know and love in my recipes, but a portion of the flour in our loaves will now come from grain grown and stone-milled right here in Virginia.
Im so excited to be supporting our regional grain producers, while continuing to make great bread with great ingredients!
I highly recommend taking a look at their website if you are interested in learning more about their work🫶🏻
