Bread Festival

Published: Updated:

This week is definitely packed with events! From Monday, May 14th through Sunday, May 20th, 2012, we are celebrating that iconic French staple: bread.

Indeed, the Bread Festival has been around since 1996 and offers the chance to go all over France to meet bakers and discover their craft through cooking classes, workshops, tastings, and events in bakeries and shops.
