Welcome to our Sourdough Bread page, we are so glad you are here!
We are passionate about all things ‘organic’ that lead to better health and life.  Farming, whole foods, flowers and sourdough breads.  In today’s modern fast-paced, fast-food world, going back to the traditional ‘old ways’ seems like a really good idea especially regarding the foods we eat. We only use healthy oils in our baking. 
All of our breads are authentic, handcrafted and naturally leavened using only the highest quality non-gmo, certified organic flours and the freshest organic ingredients available to bake premium loaves.  Our dough is traditionally fermented before it is baked to give it the signature tangy sourdough flavor and to help break down the gluten making it easy to digest. 
Every loaf starts with our “CLASSIC” recipe made with only 3 ingredients: Certified organic unbleached flours, Pure clean water (tested) and Himalayan salt.  Ingredients you can feel good about.   Clean.   Simple.   Delicious.

You can find our fresh baked authentic sourdough breads throughout the year at the locations below.

Locally grown “Certified Organic” flours.  Every loaf of sourdough bread purchased from us has locally grown, fresh-milled, non-gmo, certified organic MN flour(s) in it from Sunset Creek Farm, a central MN family farm near Albany that has been producing certified organic grains for almost a decade. 

WHY SOURDOUGH?
Not all bread is created equal – Sourdough is a nutritional powerhouse.
–Sourdough breads are naturally and slowly fermented, making it easier for your body to digest and absorb important nutrients.  
–During the fermentation process the wild yeast and lactobacillus in the leaven break down phytic acid. 
–The fermented flour contains prebiotics and has probiotic-like properties which are good for ‘gut’ support. 
–Rating low on the glycemic index it helps regulate blood sugar levels and the slow fermentation process increases the availability of essential minerals like iron, manganese, zinc, selenium, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin and folate.

All “Belle River Flower Farm” Sourdough Breads and baked items are homemade and not subject to State inspection.

Do you know Him?

Jesus said, “I Am The Bread Of Life” John 6:35
Did you know there are many ways to Hell but only one way to Heaven?  
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”  John 14:6.
 “If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”   Romans 10:9-10

“For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him.  For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Romans 10:12-14 

“But if we confess our sins to Him, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9.

Simple prayer: Jesus, you died upon a cross and rose again to save the lost. Forgive me now of all my sin. Come be my Savior, Lord and friend. Change my life and make it new and help me, Lord, to live for you. Amen.
