Downtown Grand Forks comes alive in the summer. The cafe tables are on the sidewalk for you to enjoy a morning brunch. The bike rack is just outside our door, so you can peddle to the bakery on your jaunt through the Greenway.

The Grand Cities Art Fest is on Saturday, June 11th and Sunday, June 12th in Town Square Park and across the river in the Cabella’s parking lot. Be sure to stop by our store to cool off, have lunch, or get a refreshing beverage!

The Town Square Farmers Market starts the following Saturday, June 18th from about 9am to 2pm. We have a booth there selling our breads, cookies, and pastries. You can enjoy a snack while shopping for fresh produce and krafts. Be sure to stop by and say hello to our crew! We will be set up every Saturday through the end of September. Read More…

And so, the hunt for local suppliers was on!blogEntryTopper Read More…
