IMPORTANT NOTICE – CHANGE IN HOURS:

**Please note the new hours of operation for the summer. This might follow through to the fall & winter if all goes well.

NEW SUMMER HOURS:

August 1st to September 4th:

“OPEN SATURDAYS ONLY! “

10 to 4 PM.

**Please place your order online by THURSDAY, to be sure to get what you need Saturday.

We will be closed the rest of the week and doing production.

**Please reserve by email and tell us what you need, as there will be an enormous amount of orders, because of being open only 1 day. We just want you, our favourite and regular customers, to be able to get your favourite baked goods.

- Our “frozen breads only” will be at 25% discount Saturdays.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If this system works well, we will remain open only on Saturdays for the rest of the year.

Why? It is more cost effective for us to concentrate our efforts. Most people are coming on Saturdays anyway. We want to be sure that we will be there to continue to provide Spelt to our Spelties for many years to come. That is why we are concentrating our efforts, trying ways to make our work load and the cost of our goods sustainable and realistic to survive another 10 years and much more.

(** If for some reason you are not able to come and pick up a big order(minimum 12 loaves) on Saturday, we will try to be there for you Friday late afternoon, as you count for us enormously, but we cannot promise anything, as we will need to organize our work load a week in advance.)

CHANGES ON THE WEBSITE

***We will be doing some changes on our website, please check us out by next Thursday. We will be having a “Special Order” category. www.thespeltbakery.ca

You can also check out Janet’s new blog: Life of a Spelt Baker at http://speltbaker.blogspot.com
