Rupert Rising Bread
Hello everyone. In addition to our regular distribution to
stores we have decided to offer fresh bread pick up here at the
bakery on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Ordering ahead, even a couple
of days, is encouraged as it helps to plan how much to bake. We
will however have a selection here and you can call ahead to see
what’s available. We will also continue to be open for bagels on
Tuesday evening from
5-7pm.
If you like you can drive up to the bakery entrance, give a
little honk and we can bring products out to you. We accept
payment via Venmo, Paypal and Square as well as cash(exact
change would be helpful) or check.
Give us a call or text at 802-375-5250. If we don’t answer leave
a message and we will call you right back with a confirmation.
Baguettes, Ciabatta and Pain au Levain will be available both
days. On Tuesday we will also have East Street Wheat. On
Thursday we will have Semolina Levain. Our breads freeze
wonderfully if you are looking to stock up. Thanks and be well.
Jed and Mandy Mayer.
