Organic Artisan Sourdough Breads
Gardnerville, Nevada, serving Carson/Douglas County.
Welcome to Chrissi's Farmhouse Bakery
A cottage micro bakery in Gardnerville, Nevada specializing in handcrafted organic sourdough bread.
Our sourdough begins simply: organic flour, water and salt.
Then we give it the one ingredient you can't rush: time.
Every loaf is naturally fermented, hand-shaped and baked in small batches for the crust, crumb and old-fashioned sourdough flavor that have become a Chrissi's Farmhouse Bakery tradition.
No preservatives. No shortcuts. No mystery ingredients.
Just really good bread.
From Our Farmhouse to Your Table
Our signature Gardnerville Sourdough is only the beginning.
Throughout the year you'll find a rotating collection of savory and sweet sourdough favorites, including flavors such as Jalapeño & Cheddar, Heavenly Herb, Rosemary, Garlic & Cheddar, Churro, Market Strawberry, Apricot Walnut and seasonal creations.
We also bake our Sourdough Armenian Choereg and handcrafted focaccia, along with a selection of farmhouse teas, herbs and spices.
Because we're a small cottage bakery, the menu changes with our baking schedule and the season.

Meet Our Gardnerville Starter
Every good sourdough has a story.
Ours has several.
Our signature starter was created from a collection of historic starters gathered over the years and brought together here in Gardnerville.
Over countless feedings and many, many loaves, those starters became something distinctly ours:
our Gardnerville sourdough starter.
It's the heart of every loaf we bake.
Real Bread. Local Bakery. A Little Farmhouse Personality.
We're Chrissi and Richard, the husband-and-wife team behind Chrissi's Farmhouse Bakery.
Chrissi develops the recipes and keeps dreaming up new ways to make flour interesting.
Richard handles mixing, baking, heavy lifting and a suspicious amount of talking at farmers markets.
Together, we've spent the past five years building our little cottage bakery one loaf at a time.
Thank you, Carson Valley, for inviting our bread to your tables.
