Nashoba Brook Bakery Artisan Bakery & Cafe, specializing in slow rise, hand-formed sourdough-based breads

Additional parking available in the Winthrop Street parking lot, right across the bakery footbridge. Passion and artistry are the heart of Nashoba Brook Bakery, but the fuel that feeds our hearth is wild yeast. Captured using Concord Grapes found on the banks of the Nashoba Brook, this organic yeast feeds our doughs daily. The slow rise of each hand-formed load creates enzymes that break down the

complex carbohydrates in flour, releasing vitamins and making it easier for your body to digest the goodness of Nashoba breads. "Slow Rise" also stands in contrast to the culture of instant gratification, and we believe that anything worth having is worth waiting for. Health Benefits of Slow Rise Breads

Our breads take almost 24 hours from mix to cooling rack, and that long development has important health benefits. During the dough's slow rise, complex carbohydrates are broken down into simple sugars, protein is broken down into amino acids, and our natural yeast breaks down the bran in the flour. Simply put, all this breaking down enhances the nutritional value of the bread and makes it easier to digest. Also, healthy enzymes develop during the slowrise which are not lost in baking since the center of the loaf remains at a lower temperature than the crust. Finally, the good bacteria in our homegrown yeast helps restore the health and good functioning of your digestive tract.

Our real sourdough Olive bread has been a staple of Nashoba Brook Bakery for all 28 years that we have been baking bread here in West Concord, MA. Kalamata olives and caramelized onions are swirled throughout this fan favorite.

Come get a fresh baked loaf every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.

We strive to be excellent and we know there is always more to do. The magic happens in the attention to detail - every day. When the loaves look like this - caramel colored, filled out, open cuts with complex structure revealed - it's because a lot of those small details were taken care of along the way. And so, each day we reset and try again to get it right.

All our loaves are hand shaped. The subtle art of the gentle touch meets the slow rise quality of real sourdough in the hands of our skilled bakers. That skill also develops slowly, and we know it's worth the wait. We believe that anything worth having is worth waiting for.

Long leavening time - the slow rise of real sourdough - powered by our own captured wild yeast is the secret sauce that makes our bread more delicious, more nutritious and easier to digest. The gentle process yields a subtle exploded texture. 7 days a week, 365 days of the year, the doughs are rising slowly by the Nashoba Brook.

Yes, they’re as delicious as they look. 🍫
