Community Supported Bakery
Based on the model of "community supported agriculture" (CSA), the "CSB" is a way for me to know that the bread I'm baking has a home to go to. Members of the CSB purchase shares that represent a certain number of loaves per week, and commit to picking up those loaves each week at a designated time.
In return for the consistency and stability that this commitment allows me to rely on, I can offer bread to my CSB members at a significantly discounted price (the equivalent of $5 per loaf, compared to $6-7 at the farmer's market or in the store).

Here's How it Works
Purchase shares in 8-week increments:
A small share (1 loaf/week) is $40
A large share (2 loaves/week) is $78
During the farmer's market season (May-October) CSB shares are picked up at the West Townshend Farmer's Market on Fridays from 4-7.
If you can't make it on Friday afternoon you can pick your bread up on Saturday at the West Townshend Country Store, or you can let me know at least 2 days in advance and I'll credit you a loaf for a future pick-up.
Be in touch if you'd like to request a particular variety or confirm what I'll be baking on a given day.
More CSB share and pick-up options coming soon. Sign up for the mailing list to stay in the loop.

And now, you can sign up for the CSB right here!
You should get a confirmation email from me personally within a week of your purchase. If not, be in touch!
PLEASE NOTE: The CSB share prices listed below are very slightly higher than those advertised due to the fact that I am charged a processing fee for online sales. These prices reflect an addition of half of the processing fee. If you do not want to pay a little extra for the convenience of paying online, I welcome your payment by cash at the farmer's market, or by check mailed to PO Box 1067 West Townshend, VT 05359. Thank you for your understanding!
