"Announced by a celebrated pastry chef, this bakery at the Barton Springs Mill complex will emphasize breads, wood-fired pizzas, pastries, and coffee in a craft-focused bakery format." - Erin Russell
"A baking program led by pastry chef Abby Love that focuses on the science and craft of baking — classes cover croissants, pies, and sourdough — with sessions priced from about $115 per person and held as she finishes her space out at Barton Springs Mill; classes are bookable online." - Erin Russell
"As a supplier cited for the bakery, Barton Springs Mill is the source of grains that she plans to use in her breads and baked goods." - Nadia Chaudhury
"A Hill Country grain mill led by James Brown has become a local advocate for heirloom flours and grains, seeking out special seeds, encouraging Texas farmers to grow them, and processing everything on-site. The operation is expanding into a much larger facility that will include a classroom and a future bakery from Austin baker Abby Love." - Nadia Chaudhury
"An expanded grain mill and retail facility relocating to Dripping Springs will operate at a new site with a dedicated education space and a retail component to sell locally milled grains. Owner James Brown hopes to showcase products made from those grains (including by hosting a bakery run by Abby Love) and to offer classes and demonstrations; staff and partners note that recipes require adjustment from commercial flour but that the locally milled grains are worth the re-education effort. The facility shares an entrance with a nearby distillery and aims to support the local grain economy through both retail and educational programming." - Erin Russell
