When you think of the Dallas Farmers Market, you probably picture colorful, piled-high fruits and vegetables. Maybe jars of local honey, ranch-raised meats, and budding plants too. But don’t forget to add one more essential to that delicious mental image – freshly baked, crusty, wholesome bread.
The Shed is proud to host some of the best bread vendors around, and with fall officially arriving this weekend, along with thoughts of cozy soups and stews to come, there’s no better time to discover your next favorite grain-filled goodness.
Bread Street Boys specializes in all-natural sourdough breads made without preservatives, dough conditioners, or artificial additives. Their handcrafted selection of European-style loaves stay true to authentic artisan baking, delivering nutritious, flavorful bread in every bite. Swing by for:

D’s Sourdough crafts artisan breads and sourdough pastries using 100% organic ingredients and a slow, natural fermentation process that spans 60 to 84 hours. Most of their breads are vegan, made simply with flour, water, salt, and wild yeast, while their rich sourdough brioche includes locally pastured eggs and organic, pastured butter. Each loaf is handcrafted in small batches and baked fresh. You’ll find D’s Sourdough exclusively on weekends at the Dallas Farmers Market, where they’ve proudly set up shop every weekend since 2014! Come grab:
