At Our Bakery, “local” isn’t just a buzzword — it’s the foundation of everything we bake. Here’s why we go out of our
way to source ingredients from Oregon farms and producers.
Freshness You Can Taste
When our flour travels 50 miles instead of 500, it arrives fresher. Stone-ground flour from local mills retains more
of its natural oils and nutrients, which means better flavor and texture in every loaf of our sourdough.
Supporting Our Community
Every dollar we spend on local ingredients stays in Oregon. We work directly with family farms for our eggs, butter,
and seasonal fruits. These relationships matter to us — we know the people behind our ingredients by name.
Our Local Partners
- Camas Country Mill (Junction City) — Heritage wheat flour for our breads
- Willamette Valley Creamery — European-style butter for our croissants and cakes
- Happy Hen Farm (Canby) — Free-range eggs
- Portland Roasting Company — Fair-trade coffee served in our shop
- Bee Local — Raw wildflower honey for our pastries
Better for the Planet
Shorter supply chains mean fewer emissions. By choosing local, we reduce our carbon footprint while supporting
sustainable farming practices. It’s a win for our bread and a win for Oregon.
