American Flatbread Company
About
Flatbread Company in Somerville is part of a restaurant group that has been baking wood-fired pizza since 1998. Each flatbread is prepared by hand with natural, organic and free-range ingredients and baked in a primitive stone and clay oven fueled by wood, a renewable resource. The motto is “real food, served by real people, in a real environment,” and the company highlights local, organic and dairy-free pizzas.
The company began in Amesbury, Massachusetts, in the summer of 1998, when organic distributors were scarce and local food producers were just getting started. Its story is tied to nearby farms and makers such as Cider Hill Farm in Amesbury, Valley View Farm goat cheese in Topsfield and George’s Hemlock Hollow Farm maple syrup in New Hampshire. That partnership with local farms has carried to each new location, where the group aims to become part of the community.
