WIDE AWAKE:

YOUR local bakery

We are a community-focused bakery located in Trumansburg, NY. We work closely with our partners- Oechsner Farms and Farmer Ground Flour- to make great breads from local organic grains

Hungry? You'll find our bread all over town.

We strive to make our bread as accessible as possible to everyone in our community. Through retail, Crust Funds, markets and events, we do our best to stay in your life!

Our partners

Wide Awake Bakery is a tight collaboration with our grain farmers Thor Oechsner and Dan Gladstone of Oechsner Farms, and our miller colleagues Greg Russo and Neal Johnston at Farmer Ground Flour. We grow, mill, and bake in partnership, and we are dedicated to spreading the good news about regional grains.

Breads, pastries, cookies, granola… and more!

We aim to make the best bread in the world. We know... that’s a high bar. But why not? We study every day to understand our bread. We do our very best to make our bread, your bread, fabulous. We bake MANY different kinds of bread (our current count is around 200 varieties total!), and every week we bake a widely varied selection. 

Community is our most important resource.

We strive to make our work humane, full of art and joy, and non-exploitative. As bakers, community members, and concerned citizens of planet Earth, we try at very least to show up. We work with local organizations that further the causes we believe in.
