Here’s How Wildgrain Became The Mother-Son Bonding Experience I Didn’t Expect

There’s not enough time in the day. This becomes especially true when you become a parent.

It feels like I’m always moving—whereas my son, Ryder, would prefer that I slow down. Way down. But the older he gets, the harder it seems to be to find the time!

Recently, a friend and fellow foodie turned me onto Wildgrain, bake-from-frozen sourdough bread delivery service.

Here’s how Wildgrain became the bonding experience I didn't expect:

1. Wildgrain Helps Me Combine Dinner Prep with Family Time

My son is 12 and plays travel soccer so we’re in the “get dinner on the table FAST and then rush to practice after homework” season of life.

With Wildgrain, I don’t have to trade quality for convenience—their bake-from-frozen sourdough breads, fresh pastas, and artisan pastries come together in less than 25 minutes, and they always taste like I spent hours in the kitchen.

In fact, the prep is so straightforward, I can even involve Ryder! He loves helping with simple tasks while I’m in the kitchen, like adding fresh pasta to the pot, or preheating the oven for bread. 🧑🏽‍🍳

2. There Are Customizable Boxes to Suit a Picky Eater

Ryder's a feisty tween, and let’s face it…kids tend to like the food they like.

All Wildgrain boxes are customizable, whether we want to order all bread, all pasta, all pastries, or some other combination of carbs.

Ryder and I have loved the breads, croissants, pastas, pastries, and even pizza (YES, pizza!) in our Wildgrain box, but when tween pickiness strikes, it’s a relief to know we can request a box of his “safe” foods instead of a wider variety. 😅

3. No More Last Minute Trips to the Grocery Store

My Wildgrain subscription is tailored to my schedule, with the makings of 30+ different meals in every box—something I really appreciate as a full-time working mom who views cooking during the week as a chore and an afterthought.

Wildgrain boxes start at just $69 per box. And if I need to reschedule my Wildgrain delivery or cancel for anything, that’s just a click away. Did I mention delivery is always free?!

Give Us All the Carbs 😋

My experience has been so refreshing with Wildgrain. I pretty much always have high quality breads and pastas in my freezer, and the meal possibilities for Ryder and me feel practically endless. All it takes is a can of sauce or a side of veggies and poof, Wildgrain does the rest of the heavy lifting.

And since Ryder loves carbs almost as his mom, Wildgrain has genuinely transformed our hectic mealtimes into a true bonding experience. 🥖
