In the hustle & bustle over the weekend event we would be very sad if we didn’t recognize one of our staff members that has chosen a new path.

was my first employee at 16. She showed up to the market to help me each weekend.
She was bright, fun, and excited to learn! She has grown with me as our business has. She became a main source of baking and you have all eaten something Jordan has made. She been with me off & on for the last 7 years and I’m so grateful to her dedication and humour everyday.

You will be missed ❤️
Jordan, Jerry, drip drop and so many more nic names!
Your Rueben will always be here.
