Golden Earth Baked Breadfund.
A soulful startup seeding joy, devotion, and handmade baked goods.
Spreading love, one loaf at a time.
Hi, I’m Deshana—founder of Golden Earth…
If you know me, you know I have a deep love for gardening, design, baking, and cooking.
But let’s talk about the kitchen. Because for me, food isn’t just sustenance—it’s memory. It’s communion. It’s where my family has gathered for generations.
Whether it was a graduation, a family reunion, a birthday, or just a regular Sunday dinner, no one ever left our home without a full stomach—or a to-go plate. There was always music playing in the background, but it was the smell of peach cobbler, sweet potato pie, or lumpia that told you everything you needed to know:
You are Home.
It brings me joy to carry those traditions forward—moments of comfort, togetherness, and celebration—into my work today.
And now, I’m inviting you to celebrate with me.

Golden Earth Baked…
…is my next chapter. A limited, sacred project that will run from June 2025 to January 2026, as an in-home bakery.
With it, I’m creating space to nourish my community through seasonal, handcrafted baking—while continuing to grow my consulting firm, Momentum Solutions Group, and my creative writing practice with devotion, not depletion.
The Breadfund helps make that possible by covering essential startup needs like packaging, tools, ingredients, and a shared space for celebration.
If you’ve ever tasted my loaves, shared my baked desserts, or laughed around my table, you know: this work is LOVE.

When will I receive my Breadfund gifts?
Breadfund rewards begin July 2025 and continue monthly through December 2025, depending on your tier. You’ll receive an email to coordinate pickup, delivery, or mailed items based on your location.
What if I live outside of North Carolina?
No worries—while fresh loaves are for local supporters only, out-of-town contributors will still receive digital gifts, surprise mail treats, and heartfelt thanks. You’ll still be part of our Golden Earth story.

Will there be more gatherings or events I can attend?
Yes! The Breadfund includes an invite to the Summer BBQ & Firepit Gathering, and we’ll also host a Fall Harvest Gathering. As Golden Earth grows, we’ll continue to create spaces where community and food meet in meaningful ways.
What if I want to contribute a skill or partner, not just money?
Beautiful! We welcome creative collaborations—whether it’s photography, event space, partnership ideas, or ingredient donations. Reach out via email or DM so we can explore how your gifts might support this vision.
