Sometime in the last few weeks, we were talking about Clarksburg Bakery, late of Spring Street, and their cheese bread, which is now available from Wild Oats. From a MiniLaura submission to the flickr pool, here’s a picture.
UPDATE: The cookies, Chunky Cheese Bread, and other baked goods once sold at the late, lamented Clarksburg Bakery on Spring Street are made by former Clarksburg baker Jamie Ott at Cricket Creek Farm, a dairy farm with a farm store off Sloan Road in Williamstown, about a mile from the Store at Five Corners. The farm also produces artisanal cheeses (available for online purchase), pasture-raised beef, eggs, and milk, and has a barn space available as a small rental party place.
If you go to the farm’s website, you’ll see a list of stores (including Wild Oats, the co-op on Rt. 2) and restaurants that carry or use some of their items, as well as a weekly bread baking schedule.
Thanks to Tom Bernard ‘92 for the heads up.

That is a piece of cheese bread I would gladly marry (I was a little more direct about this earlier, but I’ve rephrased my feelings about the cheese bread in order to be family-friendly).

You talked about Clarksburg and I missed it? Do you have a link? The search featured didn’t find a recent post about it.
you missed these Clarksburg goodies:

I couldn’t either, but I know we did talk about it. It may go back further than I thought. Maybe we were talking bout Wild Oats and whether it was taken over by Whole Foods.

I just put it up as a separate post.

Laura - you have a flickr setting that’s preventing you (or anyone else) from embedding your images on another site.

Whole Foods has acquired Wild Oats, but the Wild Oats outlet in Williamstown has not yet undergone a name change.

do you know what setting that is? Nothing is jumping out at me as something that I can change to remedy this problem.

I switched it, and it still doesn’t appear to work.
