Mighty means stone-milled.
We always suspected that industrialized bread and bagels couldn’t be good for us. But, the more we researched and talked to health leaders, the clearer it became that decades of harsh farming and industrial milling wasn't good for the planet or it's people. We see a future in which people have access to real, nourishing bread, bagels and tortillas. That's why we are standing up to the industrialization of food by building our own healthy stone-milled food systems.
Catalyzing Organic Wheat Farming.
Only about 1% of wheat grown in our country is organic— that’s not good enough. We directly partner with organic farmers who commit to our Mighty supply chain standards. This means we source as much local, organic wheat as possible and we partner with farmers who commit to extended crop rotations and promote biodiversity.
Building our own Mighty Stone Mills.
150 years ago, stone mills were the cornerstone of healthy, local food systems. Thanks to the industrial revolution, tens of thousands of stone mills were replaced by a handful of industrial mills. Freshness, taste, and nutrition were traded for shelf stability and low costs. That's why we're on a mission to build stone mills across the country. We started with one in Lynn, MA and today have 10 in MA, NY, and CA.
Nourishing schools and communities that need it most.
75,000 Students. That's how many stone-milled bagels and pizza crusts we served to public school kids in under-invested communities spanning Springfield, Greenfield, Salem, Reading, Providence, and Lynn last school year. We believe fulfilling our mission means we have to feed communities beyond the ones who can purchase our Mighty Breads and Bagels at grocery stores.
We're measuring our progress to fulfill our mission
Support Mighty Farms to Grow More Organic Wheat
We milled 1,000,000 lbs of local organic wheat milled in year 6. Healthy wheat means living, organic soil which supports a happy and healthy community and planet.
Local Stone-Milling Infrastructure
Together, our 3 milling systems (which spin a total of 9 stone mills, 3 in each location), can produce 5M lbs of stone-milled flour per year. That’s enough to produce 6M loaves of bread or 36M bagels.
feed local communities fresher food
We’re proud to report that in year 6, we expanded our offering for public school students to include stone-milled pizza crusts. What’s most exciting is that we are replacing an industrial, processed crust with one that has clean ingredients, more protein, and more fiber.
Everyone acts like an owner, because they are.
From baker to miller— every employee at One Mighty Mill is eligible for equity after one full year. A clear highlight of year 7 will be the day we provide equity ownership to our 4 millers we hired in New York and California during year 6.
Putting the “B” in baking
We're a B Corp which means we balance purpose with profit. To fulfill our mission we hold ourselves to certain social, environmental, and internal standards.
This mission also makes better tasting bread and bagels.
