Crumb Brothers Artisan Breads opened its doors in March 2004 to the Cache Valley community. Started by three friends, Josh Archibald, John Reichert and Oblock, were committed to creating a superb hand-crafted bread.
"In the mid 90s I got a sense of what was going on. There was a artisan bread movement happening," Oblock, owner of Crumb Brothers, said. "There really wasn't any good artisan bread in Utah. I liked the idea and that is when the idea germinated in my mind." The bakery currently bakes around a third of what Oblock would like. He says he eventually plans to bake around 3,000 loaves a day.
The hardest part for Oblock is getting others to realize how good the bread is, because they have to try it to understand. Artisan bread is made completely hands on.
Crumb Brothers sells out of all the bread it makes daily and they ships bread to Salt Lake City to the Salt Lake City Farmers Market in the summer. It has also sold bread at the Cache Valley Farmers Market on Saturdays in Logan.
