We only feed our community the best! That’s why we proudly source from local farms wherever possible, including organic grains from Mountain Mama Milling (Monte Vista, CO), dairy from Morning Fresh (Bellevue, CO), tart cherries from Big B’s/Delicious Orchards (Hotchkiss, CO) and roasted green chilis from Milberger Farms (Pueblo, CO). We’re also active members of the Colorado Grain Chain. Love to bake at home? We’ve got local flour for sale and we’re always happy to share a dollop of “Carl” the sourdough starter for FREE! Carl has been in Emily’s family for over 40 years!

owner of little red hen bakery

A few of her favorite things include her mom’s honey whole wheat bread, strong coffee, her rescue dog Tundra, and her new baby girl, Ophelia. She’s occasionally known to cry tears of joy when eating cinnamon rolls straight from the oven. When she’s not baking her buns off, you can find her hiking the beautiful Salida area trails with her daughter and husband Andrew, owner of 7000 Feet Running Company in downtown Salida.
