If you are looking for authentic sourdough bread in Eugene, this one tops my list! They start with organic locally-sourced flour that hasn’t been bleached or enriched. They use a long slow sourdough process and then they bake it in a wood-fired oven. From 10% to 100% whole grain flour breads, you can choose from many different varieties or crusty, chewy, sourdough delight. Oh yeah, they have other food too….
