A Little More About The Sour Crumb
I wanted to feed my family food made with intention, not shortcuts. The Sour Crumb is naturally fermented sourdough baked from my home kitchen.
I recently launched The Cozy Stitch for the same reason: beautiful, functional home goods made by hand, in small batches, the way things should be made.
- Based in: Madison, AL
- Specialties: Sourdough bread, bagels, focaccia, cookies, granola, scones, baking mixes, pantry goods, gift baskets, workshops. The Cozy Stitch: chunky knit blankets, handwoven baskets, potholders, trivets, dish cloths, scrubbies, seasonal decor, gift baskets
- Best known for: Naturally fermented sourdough bread, and made-to-order chunky knit blankets from The Cozy Stitch
- Fun fact: I’m a mom of two boys and a former teacher. My favorite part is making something with my own hands for other people to enjoy.
Featured Testimonial
“The bagels and sourdough loaf is the BEST I’ve ever eaten. Seriously, it’s better than any restaurant, store, or bakery. Don’t hesitate... just try it and enjoy a little bit of heaven in your mouth!”

Frequently Asked Question
Q: When do orders close?
A: Monday at 6 PM for that week’s pickup. You can order anytime during the week, but anything after Monday 6 PM rolls into the following week.
Q: What allergens do you avoid?
A: The kitchen is corn-free and nut-free. We work with wheat, eggs, dairy, and soy, and take care to avoid cross-contamination. It isn’t a certified allergen-free facility, so if you have allergy concerns, reach out and we can talk through it.
Q: Do you teach sourdough?
A: Yes! I teach Sourdough 101 monthly at Lemon & Lavender on Main Street in Madison. It’s beginner-friendly and hands-on, and covers feeding schedules, shaping, troubleshooting, and how sourdough actually works.
Q: What’s your favorite product?
A: My cookies! My bread is delicious too, but there’s something special about a good chewy cookie.
