Winter Bread Subscription

Dear Bread Eaters:

It's time to SIGN UP for your winter bread subscription! This is a Community Supported Bread program rather like a farm CSA, but instead of vegetables you get a loaf of bread every week for ten weeks. You can pick up your bread downtown or in Fairhaven, every Wednesdays, January 18 - March 22. Exact pickup locations TBD.

There are three share types:

1. Red & White ($70)  The simplest sourdough. Mild and tender. Keeps for a week cut side down on the counter.
   Ingredients: organic red & white wheat, water, sea salt. 
2. Mountain Rye ($70)  A dense, complex Danish rye. Slice thin for open faced sandwiches or thick to pan fry in butter. A meal in itself. 
   Ingredients: water, organic rye, organic wheat, organic corn, organic sesame, organic flax, organic sunflower, sea salt, organic caraway & coriander.
3. Dealer's Choice ($75)  Mix it up with a selection of market favorites!
   Week 1/6: Oats & Honey
   Week 2/7: Rosemary Sea Salt
   Week 3/8: Wild & Seedy
   Week 4/9: Polenta
   Week 5/10: WILD CARD!
   Ingredients: organic whole wheat flour, water, and sea salt, and a variety of other organic grains and seeds. 

I'm hopeful that adding a winter subscription will make your life better (or at least more delicious) by giving you access to organic, whole grain breads outside of the farmers market, and will make my life better by evening out my work and income over the course of the year. Because I have to tell you, trying to shove a year's worth of baking into the four months of peak farmers market season is a little crazy.

So, sign up! Tell your friends and coworkers to sign up. Share the CSB with your social media networks. And, please, send me your promotional tips and insights, if you have any, because you know I have yet to master the art of hustling, and I need a critical mass of subscribers to make this work. 

In summary:
What: 10 week bread subscription
When: Jan 18 - March 22
Where: pick up every Wednesday downtown or in Fairhaven (specific pickup sites TBD)
Why: So you can eat wonderful, organic, whole grain, sourdough bread during the dark winter months, and to support your favorite local baker.

Thank you! Your enthusiasm and support keep my crazy dreams of wild fermentation alive. 

Sophie

p.s. It's not too late to order your pies and rosemary rolls for Thanksgiving!
