Organic Whole Grain Edible Schoolyard Loaf (2 Pack) - Healthy Snack for Kids Lunch Box, School Picnics & Family Breakfast

The Acme Bread Edible Schoolyard loaf is a 100% whole-grain bread, developed with Alice Waters of Chez Panisse to pay homage to her Edible Schoolyard project at King Middle School in Berkeley. The challenge was to make whole-grain bread that was soft and a little sweet so that kids would love it. This loaf expresses the values of the Edible Schoolyard, being nutritious and simply made with local ingredients. This year, it's made with California Yecora Rojo wheat. 

Besides the wheat, this bread contains a little honey, a bit of coarse rye pumpernickel meal, and salt. It is leavened with a starter containing the wild yeasts that occur naturally in the flour and the bakery environment. The rustic and whimsical shape of the loaf celebrates irregularities that arise when bread is made by hand.

Deep flavorful and sturdy crust, light interior crumb, malty sweet, spongy texture with a wonderful wheaty quality that invites quality butter and yet does not need to stand on its own. This package includes two loaves that are shipped frozen; however, they may not arrive frozen. Each loaf measures 8″ × 6″ x 3″ and weighs 1lb and 5oz.
