Our Story

At Leavened, we bake bread with intention. Each loaf is rooted in tradition, shaped by hand, and made with grains that have been grown and milled close to home. We work with regional varieties like Rye, Spelt, and Einkorn—grains with deep histories and real character. It’s our way of honoring where we are, and what came before.

This all started in the biergarten at Weiss Ferments, where community and craft came together naturally. That same spirit continues with Leavened. We’re not about high volume—we’re about thoughtful, small-batch baking that invites connection. We believe good bread slows you down. It gives you something to gather around. Something to share.

Because bread has always been more than food. It’s a symbol of care. Of resilience. Of what’s possible when people take the time to do something well.
