This week Wednesday, Julie, my website designer from Mindover Marketing, says my website will be up and running! I am so excited!! Ordering will not yet be ready through the website , but you can see my baked goods in one place and hear my story and my calendar is linked to The Great Bread Company’s calendar, so you can see where you can find my products. You can call or text (616)229-1811 to order from me and pick them up from me at 6783 City View Drive, Hudsonville OR at the events listed on The Great Bread Company website calendar. Check both Farmers Markets and Shows and Events Calendar.
As for ordering, there is still much work for me to do to make that dream a reality. I will keep you posted on my progress!

Apple Cinnamon Scones with Apple Cider Glaze (my assistant and I sampled this one and we both 😍 them! Perfect balance of apple pieces and cinnamon in a light crumbed scone with apple cider glaze on top.
AND
Orange Chocolate Chip Scones with Orange Glaze (these were the favorite of many children I had the privilege of baking with over the years) Loved by kids AND adults.

Don’t forget, there is also NO farmers market this Saturday, June 13, as Downtown Wayland will be busy celebrating the Car Show & Summerfest! 🚗☀️🎉

Instead, come spend the day with us at Summerfest and enjoy a pancake breakfast, the car show, food trucks, vendors, live music & entertainment, kids’ activities, and more!

I asked my grandson, who is 8 years old, to try my burger buns. He does and says “It just tastes like a regular hamburger bun to me, Nana.” Except these are Gluten AND Dairy Free! That’s what is so amazing!! They taste just like the ones we remember, but without all the health issues.
These will be at farmers markets wherever The Great Bread Company is this week. You see my sister owns The Great Bread Company and she is bringing my baked goods with her incredible breads and pastries to markets and shows throughout Michigan.
