Calling all Pittsburgh-area bakers (home and professional alike!):

Common Grain Alliance invites you to our next Baker Meetup in Pittsburgh at Third Space Bakery.

Baking with local grains yields delicious results and connects us to the rich agricultural heritage of our region. By sourcing grains grown nearby, we not only support local farmers and reduce our carbon footprint but also discover a depth of flavor and character that cannot be replicated with mass-produced ingredients. Whether it's the earthy sweetness of freshly milled whole wheat flour or the subtle nuttiness of locally grown oats, baking with these grains brings a sense of terroir to our loaves, muffins, and pastries, fostering a deep appreciation for the land and the hands that nurture it. This event is an opportunity for professional and home bakers alike to network, exchange tips and tricks, share baked goods, and chat all about baking.

When: Friday, August 1 from 5 - 6:30 p.m.

Where: Third Space Bakery, 5349 Penn Ave., Pittsburgh, PA 15224

Come hungry and bring the following:

• A bread or baked item of your choice made with local grains. Please bring your baked item with a tray or board, and pre-sliced or portioned for easy sharing.

• A recipe card with information about your bake (consider including a formula or recipe, along with which grains are locally sourced) and any contact information you would like to share (such as your Instagram handle)
