BAKING THE DIFFERENCE
It's about baking a difference in your life!
COMMUNITY SUPORT
Our bakery is locally owned and operated. It's no surprise, then, that we are passionate about being genuine - in our craft, in our customer service, and in our community involvement.
We value the people in our communities, to employees and their families, and our customers and their families too. We’ve described our approach to food as old-fashioned, and the same can be said of our approach to people. It may be increasingly rare, but we still believe in being good neighbors, treating people well, and doing business with integrity.
Part of our mission statement is to “give generously.” We welcome opportunities to share our bread and serve our local communities. We gladly donate to non-profit organizations. We donate bread, sweets and bread race wheels for events, beautiful gift baskets and gift cards for fundraising auctions.
DONATIONS
We donate to food banks, food shelters and non-profit organizations that provide food to our community's most vulnerable.
If you are looking for a donation, please stop by one of our bakeries and pick up a request form or click here to download one. Once you fill it out, please bring it back to one of the bakeries to turn it back in. Because of the large quantity of donation requests we receive, please allow at least 2 weeks for us to process the request. It is always best to get your request into us as early as possible so we can do our best to work with you and your cause.
We do reach our maximum capacity from time to time, so call us as soon as you know your needs. Due to production volume, we are unable to accommodate donation requests from November 15th through December 31st. Please consider us for any other time of the year. Thank you for your interest!
