Edgewater Hearth Bread Company

09/19/2026

It’s been a quiet week at Edgewater Hearth — no baking this week and a little time away from home.

While driving, Angela and I got talking about fermented foods — and, naturally, sourdough came up.

It reminded me of an interesting article from University Hospitals about what fermentation actually changes in bread — and what a registered dietitian has to say about sourdough.

It’s worth a read.

Pre-orders reopen next Sunday, September 27.

Made without commercial yeast or additives, sourdough bread offers several unique health benefits over regular bread.

Our first bake is heading home.

There’s something different about seeing these loaves lined up knowing each one has someone waiting for it.

Thank you to everyone who placed an order, shared a post, followed along, or told a neighbor about Edgewater Hearth. You helped turn an idea into a neighborhood bakery.

This is just the beginning.

How do you know when it’s going to be a good loaf?

The dough tightening up as it’s shaped before baking.

Opening the Dutch oven to a beautifully risen loaf, golden with browned edges.

The crackle of the crust under the knife, revealing all those nooks and crannies.

And, of course, that first bite—rich and full of flavor.

Those are the moments I look forward to with every Classic Country loaf.

Orders open September 6.
