Ahh!! The smell of fresh bread. Nothing smells as wonderful.

In this workshop, you will learn how to make simple yeast breads and rolls. As an added bonus, you also will learn how to turn basic breads into dessert bread.

Ellen Harbin-Dabbs is a Tennessee native. Growing up in the Tennessee State Park system, she learned many traditional skills that have been forgotten over time. She was taught ways of the hearth by her mother and grandmother, and the ways of the wild by her father who was an outdoor instructor and park ranger.
