About Lift Shack Provisions
Lift Shack Provisions is a small cottage bakery in a Vermont valley — turning local grains, cultured butter, and dark amber maple into breads and pastries baked to order and picked up fresh from the shack.
Who we are
A one-baker shack in the valley
Lift Shack Provisions began with a single loaf and a neighbor's jar of maple syrup. It's still one baker, one oven, and a short list of provisions made in small batches through the week. We aren't a shop with set hours — we bake to order, and every loaf and pastry leaves the shack the morning it's picked up.
What we bake
Breads, pastries, and savory bakes
The weekly rotation runs toward long-fermented country loaves with a dark, blistered crust; laminated pastries layered with cultured butter; and savory bakes filled with whatever the valley's farms are sending that week. Everything leans maple-forward — dark amber syrup worked into doughs, glazes, and fillings — and nothing leaves the bench until it's baked the way it should be.
Our approach
Slow ferments, local sourcing, made to order
We work with cold, long ferments because they make bread that keeps and tastes like itself. We source grains, butter, and produce from farms we can drive to in an afternoon, and we tap maple from a sugarbush two ridges over. Nothing sits in inventory — every order is baked for the household that asked for it, and picked up the same day.
