Gravy Podcast
Gravy talks to the new owners of Walnut Family Bakery, and learns how they plan to make their space into a gathering spot for the community.
In “Making That Dough,” Gravy explores the business of cottage bakeries—and how small-scale bakers make amazing loaves out of home kitchens and converted garages.
There's a small but mighty revolution among bakers in the South and beyond to take flour seriously, creating new markets and new flavors.
Gravy takes listeners to a small house in Marshall, NC, where two large, wood-fired ovens anchor the space and attract a very specific kind of baker.
Gravy listeners travel into the mountains of western North Carolina, to a town called Marshall and a property that’s been used as a bakery for more than two decades.
