Our story
Hewn is an independent, woman-owned bakery
In a time of big box stores and large chains, Hewn is a return back to a smaller, family owned and operated bakery. We value our team of bakers, pastry chefs and front staff, and we love being part of the Evanston, Winnetka and Libertyville communities.
