- Laughing Tree Brick Oven Bakery uses local and organic ingredients whenever possible as well as produces all of its baked goods in a sustainable manner.
- Artisan bread that looks good and produced in a manner that is good for the environment.
- A roaring fire heats the oven in preparation for baking.
- A wood fire heats the oven before baking can begin.
- Staying true to traditional bread making, the Laughing Tree Brick Oven Bakery uses a wild type yeast to produce most of the breads from the bakery.
- The dough is allowed to rest for a half hour at room temperature before it is placed in cooler temperatures to raise overnight.
- Notice there are no bread pans?
- After the fire goes out, the oven is cleaned and ready to be loaded with bread to be baked. A long wooden paddle helps the bakers move around the loaves of bread as they are baked off.
- Artisan bread fresh out of the oven.
- The sign above Laughing Tree Brick Oven Bakery's booth at the Muskegon Farmers Market advertises artisan bread and baked goods produced in a sustainable manner.
