Abigail's Bakery News
May/June 2008 |
Dear Link :
There are big happenings at Abigail's Bakery! The Town of Weare has given us the go-ahead to have a retail outlet at our bakery. We think it's going to be a great way to reach out to more people in new ways. Please read below for all the details.
We continue to strive to make a great loaf of organic bread, that is nourishing for you and your family. It's also important to us to take time to listen to the requests of our customers (hence the new retail outlet!), so if you have any suggestions, don't hesitate to share them with us.
