This year started off a bit different than expected, Baked on the River is now in storage, and I am currently offering my services as a Private Chef with Events with Chef Helena

As many of you know, I have actively been working on relocating and moving out of our old location since it has been for sale and is in contract to be sold. I am truly grateful to our community that has reached out, unselfishly stepped up, and supported Baked on the River as a business, our wonderful staff and our family of three.

We miss our “Baked family of friends” and our daily interactions with our locals and visitors. The warm spirit of Baked on the River is still here, even if you can’t see it, and will reoccur in different shapes and forms until we find a new home that is right for us ♥️ We hope to be seeing all off you in a soon future, since location is still TBD. Feel welcome to send your good vibes 🙏 🤞🍀

Especially thankful for my hardworking partner Jono who has been stepping away from his responsibilities to help closing down and move, and a huge thank you to our hardworking force who helped making the move happen in rain or shine - Angela, Beri, Carl, Carole, Chloe, Christine, Christmas, Chad, Dave, Elad, Erin, Fran, Jim, Joelle, John K, John C, John O , Jules, Kat, Kate, Kelly, Leslie L, Leslie H, Luke, Marina, Matt, Melanie, Michael T, Mike F, Sequoia, Stuart, Tess, Tristan, Phillip, and Ryan and for everyone else who stopped by to say hi and have been flooding us with encouragement and ideas or got missed on this list. Thank you❣️
