Cranberry Walnut Sourdough
A true crowd-pleaser. Our rustic, slow-fermented sourdough is generously studded with tangy, ruby-red cranberries and toasted walnuts. The result is a loaf with a satisfyingly chewy crust, a soft, airy crumb, and bursts of flavor in every slice. Perfect for toast or cheese boards.
Jalapeño & Grass-Fed Cheddar
For those who like it bold. We fold spicy, fresh jalapeños and sharp, creamy cheddar from grass-fed cows directly into our tangy sourdough. The crust bakes to a gorgeous, cheese-laced crisp, creating an addictive loaf that’s incredible for sandwiches or enjoyed on its own.
Classic Country Sourdough
The heart of our bakery. This is pure, unadulterated sourdough perfection, crafted with just organic flour, water, and salt. A deep, complex flavor, a beautiful open crumb, and a blistered, golden crust. It’s the essential loaf for any table and any meal.
Soft Sourdough Sandwich Loaf
All the flavor and gut-friendly benefits of sourdough in a classic, soft-textured loaf. Its tender crumb and thin crust make it the ultimate canvas for sandwiches, french toast, or a simple slice with butter. A family favorite, naturally leavened.
Organic Chocolate Chip Cookies (4)
The cookie you dream about. Buttery and soft with crisp edges, packed with pools of decadent organic chocolate, and finished with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt. Made with eggs from our own free-range hens. Pure, simple, and utterly irresistible.
Lemon Blueberry Scones (4)
Incredibly tender and moist, our scones are bursting with juicy blueberries and bright lemon zest. Topped with a tangy lemon glaze, they are a sublime treat alongside your morning coffee or afternoon tea. A little bite of sunshine.
Artisan Sourdough Bagels (8)
This is what a bagel should be. Chewy, dense, and full of character from the slow sourdough fermentation. We boil them before baking for that authentic, shiny crust. Infinitely better than anything from a bag. Available in Plain or Everything.
Kneaded with love, rooted in purpose.
Hello, I’m Galina Peterson, the hands and heart behind Loaves & Mountains Bakery.
My journey into baking is deeply personal. Adopted from Russia at age four, I grew up surrounded by the beauty of the American landscape. It was here in the mountains of Georgia that I discovered my calling: to create food that is as honest and nourishing as the earth it comes from.
After professional training, I turned away from commercial baking to embrace a simpler, more purposeful path. I believe in the magic of wild yeast, the integrity of freshly milled organic grains, and the unparalleled richness of eggs from our own happy, pasture-raised hens. This isn't just baking; it's a commitment to real food and transparent ingredients.
As a wife and mother, I bake for your family the same way I bake for my own—with patience, passion, and a profound respect for tradition. Thank you for letting me share a piece of my heart with you.
