Organic

Tom's Pantry used almost only certified organic flours. Most of the other ingredients were also certified organic, with a few exceptions depending on availability. 
​But Tom's Pantry was not a certified organic operation. 

We love authentic organic sourdough bread, the traditional levained bread that was common centuries ago before yeast was developed. Yeast makes quick and easy bread, but sourdough provides the unique fermented taste and the strong chewy texture.

We also love organic agriculture and food for its positive impact on our environment, the contribution to our health, and its support of farm families. And let's talk about a craving for taste, relationships, and artisanal uniqueness.
