In honor of Small Business Week, we reflect on how the Modern Stone Age Kitchen grew from a family dream into a thriving community hub — thanks to the incredible support of local small businesses, farmers, and our team. Discover the people and partnerships that helped shape our journey and why small businesses are a force for positive change.

At Modern Stone Age, we believe dessert should be joyful and nourishing. In this post, we share how we’re transforming treats using ancestral food prep, real ingredients, and no seed oils, refined sugar, or guilt. Because celebrating with food should never come at the cost of your health—or happiness.

Many people are now asking restaurants about seed oils—but the real danger might be hiding in your own kitchen. In this post, we reveal the surprising places industrial seed oils like canola, soybean, and sunflower are sneaking into your pantry and how to swap them out for traditional fats that truly nourish.

We’re thrilled to introduce the new Modern Stone Age website—a place where our kitchen, food lab, community, and mission all come together under one roof! What started as a small, family-driven passion for real, nourishing food has evolved into a thriving movement, and we couldn’t have done it without you.

With this new site, we’ve streamlined everything—making it easier than ever to explore our offerings, sign up for classes, shop our sourdough creations, and connect with our growing community. Plus, we’re excited to share our Founder’s Video, where Bill and Christina Schindler reflect on our journey, the heart behind our work, and what’s next for Modern Stone Age.
