You can find our fresh baked authentic Sourdough Breads every week at Peppa & Poppy’s Market from May through October. While you’re picking up bread, be sure to step inside the charming wooden shed for farm-fresh eggs, homemade jellies and jams, and locally produced honey and maple syrup. As spring gives way to summer, Emily will also offer fresh Asparagus and Rhubarb followed by sweet Strawberries, garden Vegetables, and juicy Sweet Corn as each comes into season.
Belle River Sourdough Breads are not just any bread; they are a celebration of artisanal craftsmanship! 🍞 Using traditional sourdough techniques, each loaf features high-quality, locally sourced ingredients: organic flours, pure water, and salt. The magic lies in our all natural organic sourdough starter, which develops the signature tangy flavor and a delightful crust. Our premium loaves are available at Peppa & Poppy`s Market and the Alexandria Farmers Market, so whether you`re making sandwiches or enjoying a buttered slice, you’ll taste the difference in every bite! 🌾✨ Savor quality. Thank you for supporting local small business and our community.
