Journeyman Bakery

JOURNEYMAN IN THE NEWS

Journeyman is a community supported bakery (CSB) located in Peekskill, New York, focused on preserving the ancient tradition of bread baking while exploring the role that bread plays in sustaining a community. Journeyman creates a mix of naturally leavened (sourdough) and commercially yeasted breads using flour that is milled in New York State. All bread is baked by Westchester resident Michael Sellers.

Journeyman's bread is sold by subscription, which allows for a direct relationship between the customer and baker. Select the plan that's right for you, and in no time you'll have fresh-from-the-oven artisanal bread delivered to your home once a week. Note that we do not have a retail location, therefore all bread must be ordered in advance.

"Take note of the bread: It’s warm-from-the-oven sourdough made by Journeyman Bakery served with salted, freshly whipped butter. Definitely worth it, even if you’re watching your carbs."

"Supermarket white bread has been ruined for us every since we tasted one of Michael Sellers perfect Pullman loaves with a tender-yet-structured crumb and just the tiniest hint of sweetness. It’s only available online or at area farmers’ markets, but totally worth it."

"Breads were great can't wait to try the next one. Cranberry Walnut so far is my favorite. The service is spectacular and it's so nice to have freshly baked bread. I look forward to being a long time customer."

Maureen M (customer review)

"I am a huge fan of both English muffins and crumpets, and this toasting bread is a wonderful alternative to both. It is airy, filled with wonderful nooks and crannies to nestle both butter and your favorite jam or preserves. And it manages to be both crunchy and soft at the same time after it’s toasted, and that in itself is pure magic. I cannot say enough good things about this bread or this company. Keep up the great work. I am a fan."
