MISSION & VISION
Flour, water, salt. It’s the simplicity that makes this type of bread so mysterious. When you pair that with high-quality ingredients, you get a truly impressive product that has a distinct difference you can taste.
Our mission is to bring the highest quality hand-crafted sourdough bread and pastry to our NE Wisconsin communities with an unwavering consistency.
Through our sourdough bread, we dream of bringing people together around bread and pastry that is notably beautiful and sparks curiosity and connection with those who share it.
THE BREAD

OUR STORY
It all started on Thursday, February 22nd, 2018 with a single, yet powerful, line written on a piece of paper:
"I want to do something with my hands. I want to know my customers."
THE BAKEHOUSE
The Bakehouse vision became a reality when our doors opened on Tuesday, March 10th of 2020 in Green Bay.
With a unique open-concept bakery design, the space was thoughtfully created to foster connections between people and their food.
Our goal is for customers to have full transparency and trust of the care and ingredients that go into their baked goods.
We truly believe it's a difference you can taste.
It’s more than just a team, it’s a work family.
The Voyageurs team is a group of people seriously passionate about creating positive change in our Green Bay community through baked goods made with love.
Our philosophy is to hustle hard, rest hard, and reflect hard.
Mental and emotional well being, positivity and authenticity are a big part of our culture. We strive to integrate our whole beings, as we believe that work-life and personal life can be positively integrated in a workplace by taking ownership of our actions and learning through our challenges.
‘Work’ at Voyageurs is not just about producing great artisan baked goods; it’s about using the power of our hands to create a tangible difference in our community… one loaf of bread at a time.
