Wood-Fired Oven

Thanks to funding provided by community members and expertise provided by local baker Lauren Bushnell, the Experimental Station has constructed a wood-fired masonry oven that is now up and running. Designed by master oven-builder Alan Scott (California), the brick-clad oven is a beautiful, yet functional element in the Experimental Station kitchen.

A wonderful educational resource, the wood-fired masonry oven will be the center of future workshops on oven use, and the art of bread baking. We also look forward to establishing a schedule of baking events, which will allow local bread bakers and bread bakers-to-be to discover both the satisfaction of baking one's own bread and the pleasures of baking with wood.

Please stay tuned for schedules of baking events and workshops.
