Simply Sourdough

Simply Sourdough Small Yuma cottage baker baking exclusively for The Lemon Grove & Grove 95 In 2020, I turned that passion into a home-based bakery business in Parker.

My name is Jessica McAfee-Embree, and baking has been a lifelong passion of mine, shared with family and friends. Since relocating to Yuma, I’ve continued my bakery while proudly serving both communities. As I build my clientele in Yuma, I’m still in Parker every other weekend, offering my loyal Parker customers their favorite breads and sweets. To place an order, feel free to call, text, or messa

ge me at 928-785-7758. Since I bake everything fresh to order, please allow 24-48 hours for preparation.

Parker friends! 🫶🏻

If you would like to be added to a biweekly contact list, comment below or send me a message. I would reach out every other week with available menu items, specials, and delivery details to see who would like to place an order for that Friday.

This would help me better plan baking and deliveries while still being able to serve my amazing Parker customers that have supported me from the very beginning. 🥖

As always, thank you all so much for supporting my little bakery journey!

Mother’s Day Muffin Sampler 🌸🫶

Saturday morning you’ll find a limited Mother’s Day Muffin Sampler at The Lemon Grove and Grove 95 featuring:

✨ Coffeehouse Streusel
✨ Chocolate Espresso
✨ Almond Poppyseed

Made with simple ingredients and absolutely zero seed oils — only pure butter or coconut oil. Homemade comfort, made with care. 🧁

Whether you’re celebrating your own mom, a mother figure, or just surviving the beautiful chaos of motherhood yourself… this one is for you. 💛

Limited quantities available Saturday morning!

It has been so special watching this grow from a small farm stand into everything it is becoming today. I’m incredibly thankful to have been part of the journey from the early days, selling my bread there before the expansion, and to continue watching this vision come to life.

Small businesses and local vendors truly thrive because of community support, and I’ve seen firsthand how much heart, hard work, and sacrifice goes into building something like this.

If you love having places like this in Yuma, continue supporting local this summer — every purchase truly makes a difference for so many families and small businesses!

And SO easy to use:
Bake at 450° for 8–10 minutes or air fry for a quick, crispy dinner 🔥

3 per pack. Freezer ready.

Because some nights… we just need simple.

Summer is coming, and we’re making a few adjustments of our stock at The Lemon Grove ☀️

I’ll be bringing a smaller selection on Tuesdays & Thursdays while we figure out what YOU all are loving most during these hotter months.

I would really love your input 💛

What are your go-to grabs each week?
• Rustic Sourdough 🥖
• Sourdough loaves 🍞
• Focaccia (and which flavors?) 🌿
• Lemon rolls 🍋
• Cinnamon rolls 🤎
• Sourdough Cookies 🍪

And I’m especially curious—
Are you loving the weekly flavor specials?
Or would you rather see more of your consistent favorites each week?

If you’re stopping in, let the team at The Lemon Grove know too—they share your feedback with me and it truly helps guide what I bake.

This little bakery runs on your support and your input—and I’m so grateful for both 🫶

👇 Tell me your MUST-HAVES so I know what to keep on the shelves this summer!

Five years ago today, this business wasn’t a dream…
it was survival.

I had just walked away from a 23-year marriage, raising my kids, and trying to figure out how to rebuild a life from the ground up.

So I started baking.

What began in my kitchen—out of necessity, faith, and a whole lot of unknowns—slowly became something more.

Loaf by loaf…
order by order…
this business was built.

Not just on flour and water—
but on healing, resilience, and the support of an incredible community that showed up for me when I needed it most.

Over the years, God didn’t just grow a business…
He restored a life.

He brought peace into our home, purpose into my hands, and even the right man to stand beside me and support this dream every step of the way.

Today, Simply Sourdough & Sweets is more than a bakery.
It’s a testimony.

A reminder that even in the hardest seasons, something beautiful can rise.

Thank you to every single person who has ordered, shared, supported, and believed in me over the last five years.
You are part of this story.

I just want to say thank you to everyone who bought my sourdough this year. Truly. Every loaf, every kind message, every bit of support has meant more to me than I can put into words.

❤️ If you need bread, stock up today! ❤️
After today I’ll be taking some much-needed time off, and my next bake/delivery will be January 8th.

I’m so grateful for this community and for all of you who choose my bread for your families. Thank you for making this year such a blessing. I can’t wait to bake for you again in the new year. 🍞🤍
