Bake and Share: Oatmeal Bread

Baking Retreat
Saturday, November 1, 2025
1:00 to 5:00 P.M. (ET)
Pam Hardiman

Learn to bake an every day oatmeal bread.  Our recipe makes two loaves - one to take home and one for our ministry at the shelter.  For bakers of all ages, younger and older.  A great activity for parents or grandparents and children, older teens on their own, or anyone who wants to learn to bake and share.  We will have activities to do while the bread is rising, but if you have homework, bring it.

Offering: Adults $50, Children ages 6-12 years old are free with a paying adult.
