Sourdough is a matter of life and death. The loaf you hold in your hands was, until recently, a living ecosystem of wild yeast, water, carbohydrates, and salt. Fermented for 18 hours, it was then baked, transforming its life-force energy into this nourishing form. The yeast within this bread represents countless generations of life, tracing back to the many friends who contributed pieces of their sourdough starters to our “Friend-Mother” project. This project celebrates new friendships by blending our sourdough mothers into a cosmic soup of wild yeasts, their diversity bringing beauty to this new ecosystem.

We are deeply grateful to the many lives who have touched this bread on its journey—from local fields, along publicly built and maintained roads in tractor-trailers, to be cleaned and milled just over the hill, sold by your neighbor at the Food Co-op, and finally baked for by friends for friends to enjoy. May it nourish you, bring you energy, and sustain your life, as bread has done since the dawn of time, embodying the eternal cycle of life and death.
