Thank you for your patience as we took a break these last weeks to bury our grandmother and settle her estate. We are her last living relatives, and it was an honor to be with her during her last days.
Today, the Local Loaf is baking again! We're bringing you a new recipe for country french bread that we call...
Ooh La Loaf!
It's a soft, crusty, long loaf made by hand from just a few simple ingredients.
See you soon!

Back in Action!
Thanks for your understanding this week. Our family is still grieving, but we are nearly back to our normal routine. We expect to be baking again Sunday, which means subscriptions and deliveries will resume!

Loafing on Father's Day
Just a reminder -
The Local Loaf will not be baking tomorrow! We are taking Father's Day off to go on a family picnic.
We'll be baking again on June 23!
Thanks!

Spring Specialty Breads
With spring comes the urge to try new things, and here at the bakery, that means new recipes!
For Passover, we offered unleavened bread for the first time: a whole grain flat bread sweetened with honey and softened with olive oil. Since Passover coincided with St. Patrick's Day this year, AND it was the third Sunday of the month, we also had challah--some in the shape of four leaf clovers!
This week, we are back to basic Daily Bread. But don't worry--we have special breads planned for Easter next week!
Folks keep sending me this link to cute little bunny rolls:

So, we'll make a batch of them!
Since many people enjoy ham on Easter, we'll also offer a surprise savory loaf guaranteed to pair well with ham.
Hope to see you soon!

First Rise
Welcome to The Local Loaf!
I'm Lee, the baker.
I handcraft artisan bread, one loaf at a time.
Bread brings meaning. peace, and joy to my life. It delights and sustains the people around me.
I'd like to share my bread with you. You can subscribe to weekly loaves of bread by sing the buttons on the right.
All proceeds benefit the Pocket Park initiative of the Historic Meridian Park Neighborhood Association. This project will give neighbors a park that we can walk to without leaving the neighborhood. No more will we have to cross three-lane streets just to take the dogs and kids to the park!
You can pick up your bread on Sunday mornings at Broadway United Methodist Church (29th and Broadway). Pickup begins at 10:30 am and lasts until noon.
Weekly subscriptions are just $4 per loaf; I also bake extra loaves to sell each week.
The bread I bake for subscribers is a round boule made with sea salt. It has a crispy crust and a soft crumb. The loaves are big enough to feed four people at dinner...or one person for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a snack!
I can also supply bread to local chefs and caterers. My repertoire is vast. Just ask; I'm sure I can bake whatever you need!
My bread is prepared in a certified commercial kitchen. I often bring my children along to bake with me; they love the rhythm and steam of bread baking just as much as I do.
Speaking of the children, they are asking if they can deliver bread by bike. Would you like to have bread delivered to your home regularly? Leave me a comment or email me at lee.rhys@gmail.com. I'd love to get that started!
Stay tuned for more of our story!
