Bakers source grain from local sustainable farms and bake Neighbor Loaves which contain at least 50% locally grown stonemilled flour.
You purchase Neighbor Loaves from participating bakeries.
Neighbor Loaves are distributed to community feeding organizations to support your neighbors in need.
“Projects like Neighbor Loaves and partners like Baker’s Field Flour & Bread allow me to farm the way I do. Without our local partners, I may not be able to grow some of the small grains my rotations need.”

“We are still making Neighbor Loaves and I don’t see an end to that, both from my desire to see this continue as a part of the bakery’s work, and our ability to get donations."
- Eric Schedler, Muddy Fork Farm & Bakery, Bloomington, IN
