TOM (THE BOSS):
Tom comes from a dairy background, having been raised on a local farm. He graduated with a degree in Dairy Science from Delaware Valley College and worked in the dairy industry for twenty-two years before becoming a full-time bakery owner. He and Sandi became full-time bakers together in 2006. Tom gets to learn and execute the recipes that Sandi develops. He mixes and bakes all of the European artisan breads that grace the shelves on Fridays and Saturdays. He is also responsible for the production scheduling and purchasing.
SANDI (THE OTHER BOSS): Sandi also has a degree in dairy science, but was not raised on a dairy farm. She spent time as an assistant magazine editor, technical writer and computer network administrator before becoming a stay-at-home, homeschooling mother of their four children. She began baking for a small local farmer’s market in 2002. Starting with a single variety of bread that first season (Honey Whole Wheat – that is now the variety from which the sandwich and slider rolls are now made), she has since developed 40 varieties of breads, along with innumerable pastries and other baked goods. Sandi is primarily responsible for recipe development and sales.
