Happy Anniversary to us!

It's been four years that we've operated as Saskatoon's community bakery!  

Come and celebrate with us by sampling new and old doughnut flavours during our three day 2 for 1 doughnut sale!  September 17-19, 9am to 5 pm.

We have achieved many positive things in our community over these past four years:
- we've trained and employed 27 youth at risk in job skills training
-we've helped 17 students get high school work experience credits
-we were awarded a heritage grant from the city of Saskatoon and renovated the outside of the building to look like it did in the 1930s
-we provide discount bread to programs that feed low income families and children, such as the Summer Snack program
-  we partner with community schools and provide wholesale bread to schools
- we provide fundraising items at discount prices for schools to do fundraising projects (such as pizza pretzels and doughnuts)
- we provide lunches for students at the Community Learners High School
- we provide affordable lunches to the community (Monday to Friday)

Buying our products helps our work in the community and is positive reinforcement for our young people.

School fundraisers help us train young people!

A new school year means new students for us to teach and train. We now have two classrooms upstairs at the bakery to coincide with our work experience and commercial cooking program.
Our bakers have been busy with cookie and muffin orders for school breakfast and snack programs. Some schools have already started their snack fundraisers- muffins, pizza pretzels and bannock are some of the products being used so far for schools to raise money!
We love the way this works - schools buy our products for their fundraisers and the money the bakery makes goes back into our own teaching programs. Now that's baking a better community together!
Come see us at the bakery and see our program in action! Your purchases help us train young people at risk too!

...drumroll please....

Here is our new 1930s style logo! Watch for it on our renovated building, on our food truck this summer, on our baking at fine locations across the city, and... One more place we can't tell you about yet! ;)

"What are you up to now??!!!"

That's what one our neighbours asked this morning when they saw our building!

We are renovating the outside of the building to look similar to the way it did in the 1930s...
We'll reveal our new sign/logo soon!
