May 2012 Theme Day : Bakeries

My baker is also a farmer, he produces its own wheat and flour. He works all week at this farm and on saturday he drives 75 km to sell his bread on an open market. Everything is "bio". You know that bread is very important for us in France. It's always a challenge to find a good bakery.
