Backdoor Bread started as a side project in 2014 while we owned and operated Seven Stars Bakery in Providence, Rhode Island. Jim’s interest in single variety wheats, regional sourcing and stone milling led to a side business, selling his 100% whole grain loaves at a few farmers markets around town. After 18 years in business and growing to four locations and 100+ employees, we decided to sell Seven Stars and go back to where we started: working with our hands, making products we love and being a part of a community that will appreciate our work. In the summer of 2019, our family of four moved to Charlotte, Vermont to continue the age old tradition of stone milling and whole grain baking.
