Wheat Price Concern

Hello Followers,

I want to keep you up-to-date with recent news and events within the industry and how it will affect us here at WheatFields Bakery.  Recently, there has been a lot of news floating around about the drought in China and what all might be affected. 

From what I have read there is still quite a bit of info not released, and this is because the agricultural production and reserves are state secrets. (http://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/09/business/global/09food.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1&hp)

There is a ton of important information in this article linked above, and I am pretty sure The New York Times has much better writers than myself, so I would direct you to dive into that article and educate yourself.  It looks like unless there is rain, this drought will affect our wheat prices considerably.  So stay tuned and keep an eye on the market, because it will affect us all. 

See you soon,

Josh

Bake to the Blog

Hello Followers and Readers,

We are back! The brief hiatus caused by the Holiday Season is now over! This new season of posts will include, in the near future, Sprouted Grain Sourdough and hopefully Sprouted Grain Baguettes, Croissants made with Levain instead of commercial yeast, and Lollipops! 

I look forward to sharing all these exciting new adventures with you and hope you will all experiment along with me!  I will try my best to deliver you an entry per week with photos and all that pazazz! I might even add some photos from my journey to San Diego, CA which will be taking place in approximately 2 weeks!

I will also be using the blog to update our Lunch and Dinner Specials here at WheatFields, which should only happen about once a month!

Let the new year begin!

Love what you do,

Josh
