Handcrafted Sourdough in Franklin Township, Indianapolis

Welcome to The Bread Barn™ — a family-owned farmhouse bakery where every loaf and roll is handcrafted in small batches using wild fermentation, quality ingredients, and old-world techniques.

From gooey cinnamon rolls to rustic sourdough, our bread and cookies are baked fresh for every Market Weekend and available at our self-serve stand right here at The Healey Farm.

📍 6920 Combs Rd., Indianapolis


🗓️ 1st & 3rd Weekends | Sat–Sun starting at 8:00 AM (until sold out)

From Launch to Local Staple

From Grand Opening to Community Tradition

When The Bread Barn™ first opened, demand exceeded anything we expected — and it hasn’t slowed since. That first Market Day quickly led to pre-orders, expanded menus, and Market Weekends that now feel like a standing tradition.

Today, we bake intentionally in small batches, prioritize pre-orders, and continue growing thoughtfully based on what our community asks for most — from cinnamon rolls to gluten-free options.

The support has been humbling, and we’re grateful to be part of the Franklin Township food scene.

What’s Baking at
The Bread Barn™

Our menu is intentionally small and baked in limited batches to ensure quality, freshness, and flavor in every bite. What’s available each Market Weekend depends on ingredient availability, seasonal inspiration, and oven capacity — which means every visit feels a little different.

We bake on the first and third Fridays of each month, stocking the self-serve stand by Saturday at 8:00 AM and selling until we’re gone. (Seasonal menus and schedule updates are shared on Facebook.)

 

A Taste of What We’re Known For:
  • Farmhouse Cinnamon Rolls – Our #1 pre-order item; soft, buttery, and generously filled

  • Rustic Artisan Sourdough – Naturally leavened, hand-scored, crusty outside and tender inside

  • Flavored Sourdoughs – Cinnamon raisin, blueberry, and rotating farmhouse favorites

  • Savory Sourdough Loaves – Cheddar jalapeño, cheddar bacon, and seasonal blends

  • Sandwich Loaves & Rolls – Soft, golden bread for everyday slicing, toast, and sliders

  • French Bread & Dinner Rolls – Classic, hand-shaped staples for weeknight meals

  • Cookies & Treats – Thick, bakery-style cookies baked fresh each Market Weekend

  • Pantry Mixes – Muffin, pancake, hot cocoa, pizza dough, and more for easy farmhouse baking at home

We also rotate in specialty bakes like bagels, English muffins, and buttery biscuits — so there’s always something new to discover.

My Letter To You...

Hi, I’m Sheila Healey — the hands behind the loaves at The Bread Barn™ here in Franklin Township.

For me, baking isn’t just about feeding people. It’s about slowing down, choosing better ingredients, and honoring the process. Every loaf, roll, and cookie that comes out of my farmhouse kitchen is made by hand, with care you can taste.

We bake on the first and third Fridays of each month so the stand is stocked and ready by Saturday & Sunday mornings during the market weekends. Pre-orders are always labeled and waiting for you, while everything else is available first come, first served.

Our baking rhythm follows seasons, family life, and what our community asks for most — so I invite you to follow along on Facebook for menu previews, seasonal sourdough flavors, cinnamon roll specials, and confirmed Market Days.

It’s a joy to share this work with you — fresh artisan bread, farmhouse treats, and meaningful connection. I’m so glad you’re here.

— Sheila Healey
