We are pleased to shine a spotlight on the community focused initiatives put in place by local bakeries as part of our Awards of Excellence Program.  

These local bakeries continue to rise to the occasion by providing support to their communities through a variety of local initiatives.  From donating meals and groceries to those in need, to sponsoring local sports teams and engaging in grassroots sustainability efforts, all of the winners listed below have kneaded together the ingredients of compassion, commitment, and community spirit to make a real difference in the lives of those around them.
