Sub Rosa on Hiatus



  Sub Rosa is in bread limbo. Unfortunately, it is not currently available at the Byrd House Market.

     We are still in the preparation stages for beginning work in the anticipated storefront in Church Hill. Sub Rosa's current baking efforts will go on hiatus during this building phase, but once open we intend to continue offering subscriptions available for pick up at the shop and one other undisclosed location near the Fan throughout the week.

      If you are interested in becoming a future subscriber or receiving notification/updates regarding the shop's opening, just email us at subrosabread (@) gmail.com

     And by all means, go and support those other Renegades every Tuesday from 3-Sunset at the Byrd House Market.

Mid Summer Day's Bread

Sub Rosa celebrated it's 2nd year providing bread to the Richmond community. Below are some pictures from the bread party. Around 90 some naturally leavened, wood fired saj breads were made, some plain and others with toppings. Thank you to all who came and especially to Stu for all of his help.

More news to come before Summer's end...

The Renegade Market has Begun...


The veils between the two worlds wore thin and we felt the cold in our bones on Tuesday as the Byrd House Market transitioned into it's official unofficial market season, the Renegade Market. Sub Rosa and a few other farms will stick it out all winter long with our weekly offerings. Market time for now is 3:00PM-6:00PM. As we near the Winter Solstice the market time will shorten, as darkness comes sooner.

Dia de Los Muertos Offerings



Small semolina rounds with anise seed and cacao skulls as a special pan de muertos.

Sub Rosa Bread: Season of Change

With heavy hearts we announce that Sub Rosa Bread will no longer provide bread for our customers in Northern Virginia and Washington DC. After serious s deliberation, we have made the difficult decision to discontinue subscriptions there and focus our efforts to expand the business in directions that involve less travel.

Thank you for the loyalty and support you've shown since we began this endeavor.

Sub Rosa meets Farm & Sparrow




We took a trip down to North Carolina primarily to visit with Dave Bauer of Farm & Sparrow, a wood fired baker, and to see his new oven, a beautiful 6x10. Our minds were blown. Much bread was had. We were a little crazy from lack of sleep and are still digesting it all, but if you are down that way make sure you get a chance to eat some of what this man has to offer. It's awesome. More to come...
