The Blue Eyed Bakery at Melissa Farmers Market: Where Love and Sourdough Rise Together
Meet The Blue Eyed Bakery
Tucked inside Anna, Texas, with a stall that turns first-timers into fast friends, The Blue Eyed Bakery is more than your average artisan bakehouse—it’s a deeply heartfelt enterprise rooted in family, passion, resilience, and community joy.
Founded by Sarah McDermott—journalist by day, devoted baker by night—as a tribute to her late son Oliver Lucas, The Blue Eyed Bakery was born to carry forward his brightness and memory. She later joined hands with Sarah McCarthy, whose family made the leap from Minnesota to Texas, both Sarahs united by their shared devotion to meaningful baking and heartfelt connections.
Their mission? Infuse kindness and comfort into every fragrant loaf and sweet treat, becoming a warm local light for their Anna—and greater North Texas—neighbors.
Baking With Story—and Purpose
Every small-batch offering from The Blue Eyed Bakery is lovingly handmade with tremendous attention using pure, wholesome ingredients. Behind each sourdough boule or sweet biscuit is a tribute to perseverance and the healing, connective power of good bread:
“Baking allows us to honor joy as well as grief—and pour gratitude and sweetness into the lives of everyone coming to our stall, table, or doorstep.” – Sarah & Sarah
Remembrance, celebrated with purpose and flavor, knits this family-centered bakery together and radiates out into the Anna food community. Service and gratitude also go beyond the breadboard: first responders, military, educators, and their families automatically enjoy a 15% discount, thank you for being a part of The Blue Eyed Bakery story.
