Description

This week The Farm Report trades in the pasture for a trip to the bakery that is the Hot Bread Kitchen. Host Erin Fairbanks sits down with Robin Burger, the business development manager of the Harlem-based non-profit social enterprise to explore how they are creating better lives for low-income women and their families by teaching them the skills necessary to launch food businesses and achieve management track positions in food manufacturing. Tune in to learn about how Hot Bread Kitchen is also supporting the local economy and farmers by using regionally sourced grains and flours, their incubator program for food innovators, and how theyve even re-purposed bicycles for making bread! This episode is sponsored by Whole Foods Market.
