Baker Feature: Hearth and Stone Bakery
Owners and operators of Hearth and Stone Bakery, Larry and Chris, have been in the bread game for quite some time! They’ve been at the market for 16 years (!) and Larry, who is the head baker of their operation, has been baking since he was 19 years old. Hearth and Stone Bakery is right here in Chico and is available at the market year round.
Hearth and Stone offers some truly unique bread, all made with natural starters and almost entirely whole grains. They mill all their own flour on site on a mill that Larry himself designed and built. To top it off, all loaves are then baked in a wood fired brick oven!
They offer a variety of gorgeous artisan breads, from Sunflower Sesame and Golden Flax Kamut (their top sellers!), to Spelt, Whole Wheat, Whole Wheat Berry, and Russian Black. They also offer some fun additions such as cinnamon buns, a variety of cookies, and Swedish tea rings made with walnuts, raisins, and kamut dough!
Come visit Hearth and Stone at the Chico Certified Farmers’ Market and get your hands on some very special, beautiful bread!
