about me
Bread and Blossom was founded in April of 2020...accidentally. A skiing injury left me with few of the ligaments in my knee still intact. I became tethered to my apartment as we entered quarantine with nothing to do but physical therapy and having staring contests with my cat. I barely knew how to bake but always had a dream of making sourdough. When else would I have such an opportunity to face my sourdough fears? I practiced and practiced, pushing my bread on lots of people.
Later in the spring I figured I would test out selling dips, sauces, and dressings at the Jackson People’s Market. The day before the first market I decided to bring along a couple loaves of bread. I was sold out of everything I brought within the first hour. From then on, I knew I was in business.
My goal is to nourish people with organic locally sourced food that is made with love. I want to teach people about eating locally and how to source food ethically. It gives me great pleasure to know that after a day at the market many people are eating and sharing the food that I poured my heart and soul into.
Bread and Blossom has relocated to Portland, ME! Starting in mid-May I will be at a variety of Farmer’s Markets. Check out the schedule(s) on my 2024 markets page.
