How We Built a Bakery in Our Garage - Proof Bread
via YouTube
Posted November 2, 2021 12:29 am by Paul Bonneville
To call Proof Bread the mother lode of information for anyone dreaming about starting a bakery as a way to jump into the Grain Chain would be an understatement. This video, of which there are many created and shared by Proof Bread, is by far their most viewed on their YouTube channel, but also the most informative. 

Jon Przybyl gives a tour of their old space right after they where forced by the city to move their operation. Not only does he gives the tour, but also provides a very comprehensive oral history on how they evolved their bakery from their garage...literally in this case. 

The video is over an hour and a half, so turn up the video speed to 2x and carve out the time if you can. I've watched this video and a few others to get up to date on their story and move into a commercial space. Jon has a lot to offer on the trials and tribulations of starting a micro-bakery as well as some deeper business philosophies I find myself readily agreeing with.
