At it's core, Emmer & Rye connects people with farmers, showcases the land around us, and takes pride in geeking out over techniques both ancient and new.

Breaking Bread allows us to bring in friends who share those same passions. Join us every other week as we welcome chefs and other industry friends in to our kitchen and bar. Menus will feature a mix of collaborative dishes and/or drinks, and be a unique one-night experience.
