Slow-fermented, community-driven.

Proofreader Bakery is a project that builds community through bread.

You can sign up for free bread by joining the Bread Queue. If you want to get your bread sooner,  you can sign up to preorder from our next bread drop.

GET THAT BREAD

Bread for every person in Austin.

The Bread Project

The mission of Proofreader Bakery is simple: bake bread for every person in our community. When you sign up for the bread queue, you join a list of people waiting for a free loaf of sourdough loaf. Sometimes the wait takes months. That’s part of the beauty: it’s slow, human, and shared. 

Don’t want to wait? Catch the next drop.

Bread Drops & Events

We host weekly bread drops and bake for local events where you can purchase and preorder loaves. Your support helps offset the costs of running the free bread project.

At Proofreader Bakery, baking is an act of service.

Our bread is an expression of the radical notion that you deserve something wonderful, made with care for no other reason than you are part of our community.
