Meet the Baker
Hi, I’m Brianne — a homeschool mom of three and the baker behind Six Acre Sourdough.
What started as a simple desire to nourish my own family with better food slowly grew into something more. I began baking sourdough at home, learning the rhythms of fermentation, patience, and simplicity that come with truly traditional bread. Before long, loaves were being shared with friends, neighbors, and our local community — and Six Acre Sourdough was born.
At its heart, Six Acre Sourdough is about slowing down. It’s about choosing simple ingredients, honoring time-tested methods, and creating food that feels both comforting and intentional. Every loaf is mixed, fermented, shaped, and baked with care — not rushed, not mass-produced, and never made without purpose.
As a busy mom, I understand how meaningful good food can be. Bread is often at the center of our tables — shared at meals, packed in lunches, or enjoyed warm with butter at the end of a long day. My goal is to offer bread that feels good to serve to your family, knowing exactly what went into it and how it was made.
Six Acre Sourdough is truly a family and community-centered business, and I’m so grateful to share this journey — one loaf at a time — with you.
This is more than bread — it’s a return to simple, thoughtful food made the way it was always meant to be.
Our Story
Six Acre Sourdough began quietly — not as a business plan, but as a desire to slow down and be more intentional about the food on our table.
Like many families, we were craving simplicity. Better ingredients. Fewer shortcuts. Food that felt nourishing and familiar. Sourdough became a natural part of that journey — a way to return to traditional methods that rely on time, patience, and care rather than speed and convenience.
As I learned more about fermentation and baking, sourdough quickly became more than just bread. It became a rhythm. Feeding a starter, waiting for dough to rise, baking loaves one batch at a time — all small reminders that some things are better when they aren’t rushed.
What started in my home kitchen soon found its way into the hands of friends, neighbors, and our local community. Loaves were shared, conversations started, and before long, Six Acre Sourdough began to take shape — rooted in the same values it started with: simplicity, intention, and connection.
Today, Six Acre Sourdough remains a small-batch, community-focused bakery. Every loaf is made using traditional sourdough methods, simple ingredients, and long fermentation — just as it was in the beginning. While the business has grown, the heart behind it hasn’t changed.
This is slow food, made with purpose — and shared with gratitude.
Six Acre Sourdough is built on the belief that food connects us — to our families, our communities, and the simple joys of everyday life.
Why We Bake This Way
We believe good bread starts with patience.
At Six Acre Sourdough, we choose traditional sourdough methods because they honor both the process and the people who enjoy the final loaf. Wild fermentation, long rise times, and simple ingredients aren’t shortcuts — they’re intentional choices that create bread with depth, character, and care.
Sourdough is naturally leavened using wild yeast and beneficial bacteria, allowing the dough to ferment slowly. This slow fermentation helps develop flavor, improves texture, and makes the bread easier to digest for many people. It’s bread made the way it was meant to be — without additives, preservatives, or unnecessary ingredients.
We bake in small batches because it allows us to stay hands-on at every step. Each loaf is mixed, shaped, and baked with attention, not automation. Baking this way ensures consistency, quality, and a product we’re proud to put our name on.
Most importantly, we bake this way because food matters. The bread we share is meant to be enjoyed at family tables, packed in lunches, served to guests, and savored in everyday moments. We believe those moments deserve food made with intention.
This is slow food — and it’s always worth the wait.
Because when something is made with care, you can taste the difference.
