We made it to 13k followers?! Hi new people! It’s been a while since we introduced ourselves, so here’s the long and short—
Back in 2018 I started baking funny colored sourdough using fresh milled flour out my kitchen/home made wood fired oven. Just a few loaves at a time for friends, family, coworkers, and eventually a few strangers at the farmers market. Then a few more strangers at Erewhon, more farmers markets, and more neighbors.
From baking at home, to a tiny kitchen behind a gas station… through COVID and a handful of other challenges… to here. Our very own bakery in Mar Vista almost 8 years later.
It’s been a wild journey, to say the least. Along the way we’ve built an incredible team and family, and found community in so many amazing neighborhoods across LA—whether that’s at your local farmers market or a favorite eatery serving our bread.
I feel incredibly lucky to be here sharing this loaf with you. We’re a family-owned and operated business that has grown entirely because of your support. I mean, I met my wife at the farmers market. Now we have a kid who runs around the same market snacking on our favorite farmers’ produce. It’s the best thing ever. We haven’t taken on loans, outside investment, or other capital, and we’re really proud of that (even though it’s really, really hard).
We are no bigger or smaller than how you choose to spend your dollar.
Thank you for taking us this far. I can’t wait to see where we go next (you tell us).
Big loaf 💙
Häsi Bread (pronounced hay-zee)
is 100% wild-fermented sourdough,
no yeast—just time and care.
Fresh-milled organic rye, spelt, and khorasan,
re-imagined with heirloom turmeric

A reminder that Art is in Bread.
Thoughtfully sourced coffee and tea,
brewed with intention.
The perfect pairing for our bread and pastry.
Welcome to our home.
We’re grateful to share the loaf with you. 💌
(Such a big, massive thank you to @typebytrish for capturing the vision of our bread & livelihood all on one board. You’re the best!!)
A year ago we opened these doors not totally sure what we were doing. We’re still figuring it out — and somehow that feels right.
Thank you to our team, our partners, and everyone who’s made this space feel like somewhere worth coming back to. There’s a lot more ahead we can’t wait to share it with you!
We’re celebrating with a Häsi goods + merch giveaway! Here’s how to enter to win: comment your favorite way to enjoy your Häsi and tag someone you want to share the loaf with 🫶 only eligible to LA residents!
Cheers to 1 year! 🥂

Wait, what IS this? 🍞
We get that a lot at Häsi.
Slow is the only way we know. Ancient whole grains, milled fresh. 100% wild fermentation. Zero commercial yeast — ever.
Turmeric and butterfly pea flower — subtle flavor, bold color, health-forward intention — marbled into our bread and folded into all 32 layers of our croissants.
This is our craft. Our obsession.
Come experience it for yourself — we’d love to have you. 🫶
