PACHA Bread Review
“I love this bread and my only problem is that I want more 😊”
A New Kind of Bread
Organic, gluten-free bread that’s good for you — and good for the planet.
Real Ingredients, 4 Delicious Flavors
Recognizable ingredients you’ll feel good about eating and feeding to your family.
Made with just sprouted buckwheat, sea salt, and extra virgin olive oil.
This is why I fell in love with PACHA.
BACK to the BASICS.
Simple. Pure. Whole. LIFE-GIVING.
AND – D.E.L.I.C.I.O.U.S.
I have a “thing” for bread.
BUT, I typically cannot consume it.
Yes, that’s me.
I am unable to digest gluten and, actually, floured grains.
My tummy and digestion betray me and my skin rebels.
That was a thing of the past. I’ve discovered PACHA.
LIVE PACHA.
It’s sprouted. It’s fermented. It’s grain-free. It’s simply buckwheat. And it’s fabulous.
Nutty. Complex. Chewy – and TOASTY – almost caramelized in flavor and texture.
It’s a winner.
Nutritionally, PACHA is a powerhouse.
And, agriculturally, I am swooning.

Regenerative in Our Roots
At Pacha, we consciously pick ingredients that contribute to soil health. We chose buckwheat for its deliciously hearty flavor, its numerous health benefits, but also for its utility in regenerative farming.
As a cover crop it helps to prevent erosion and is tilled back into the earth to become fertile soil. Its flowers promote biodiversity and allow farmers to cut out pesticides.
This helps reverse climate change by rebuilding soil organic matter and restoring degraded soil biodiversity.
As one of the staple foods of the modern diet, bread can be found in nearly every household in the country. These days, though, we are taught to eschew this ancient delight. The origin of grains goes back to the Neolithic Revolution about 10,000 years ago when prehistoric communities started to make the transition from hunter-gatherer to farmer. As the world’s societies became more advanced, our knowledge of farming and wheat grew with it, and we started to cross-breed and hybridize different varieties of wheat grasses with one another to boost yields, improve flavor, and make harvesting easier. Wheat went from being a wild grass to one of the most important crops in the world.
Besides becoming a nutrient dense way to feed “the people,” the tradition of breaking bread has come to represent so much more than food.
Breaking bread – sharing a meal: this is community – this is nourishment – this is manna.
Alas, modern civilization has butchered this sacred tradition. The majority of breads are no longer filled with nutrition but are made with processed items, sugar, oils, gums, and more.
We’ve lost the “bread of life.”
We’ve lost the nutritional value and we’ve abandoned the sacred tradition.
All that processing and loss of love and light in the homemade baking craft, has also created severe dietary intolerances and disease.
Gut health issues are at an all-time high. (By the way, you know about the gut-brain connection, right? AND the fact that our emotions may be regulated through the health of the gut biome…).
Digestion: sprouted fermented gluten-free WHOLE “grain” – seed – no flour.
It’s nothing (added) BUT everything all at once!
All of that aside, I am so pleased to have discovered the life-giving nurturance of PACHA.
I’m LIVING again, enjoying the “bread of life” and the gathering, sharing, soul healing benefits of it all!
PACHA has brought me back.
PACHA has brought me here.
I sliced. I toasted. And, I chewed.
Then, I experimented.
I slathered with avocado and topped with fresh sprouts.
I drizzled with cashew butter and topped with lemon plums.
I baked and layered and layered and layered for an Italian Grinder Pacha Layered Lasagna.
I buttered and savored.
I sprinkled with “noosh” and licked my lips.
I melted cheese and honored my dripping delight to the glorious gourmand goddesses surrounding me.
I indulged.
And then, I ordered more.
PACHA is a new way of life for me AND for Earth.
Underneath the umbrella term regenerative agriculture, there are many different agrarian techniques that can be implemented, with the goals of:
- Nurturing biodiversity
- Restoring habitats
- Improving soil conditions
- Increasing crop yields
- Reversing global effects of climate change
Above all, PACHA consciously chooses to use cover crops as main ingredients in our products. Essentially, cover crops can be defined as plants used to slow erosion, optimize soil health, attract pollinators, and improve biodiversity on farms.
One of our primary ingredients, buckwheat, is known for its deliciously hearty flavor and numerous health benefits; most importantly, it is recognized for its utility in regenerative farming. As a cover crop, buckwheat helps to prevent erosion and is tilled back into the earth to become fertile soil. Furthermore, its numerous flowers promote biodiversity and allow farmers to cut out pesticides in the growing process.
Another key ingredient in PACHA bread is sunflower, which also has numerous advantages in regard to regenerative agriculture. Just like buckwheat, sunflower is a cover crop, meaning that it holds soil in place throughout more frigid fall and winter seasons. Additionally, sunflower floriculture increases organic matter content within the soil, leading to more ideal growth conditions and increased crop yield.
PACHA’S choice to use cover crops as the main ingredients in our tasty products helps improve soil fertility throughout our growing facilities. Improved soil health leads to ample growing conditions, and eventually improved harvests. Ultimately, improved crop yield is necessary to attain an adequate food supply for our ever-growing global population. Regenerative agriculture techniques— such as large-scale implementation of cover crops— help to maintain healthy growing habitats for agricultural practices across Earth.
“At the end of the day, we believe actions speak louder than words in regards to regenerative agriculture promotion and environmental protection initiatives. Therefore, PACHA pledges 1% for the Planet, meaning that 1% of all of our sales are donated to support regenerative farms and sustainable agriculture education programs. Currently, we are proud to support The Ecology Center in San Juan Capistrano, and hope to team up with them on special regenerative agriculture projects in the future!”
