Local farmer Ellen Price brought wheat heads, grain samples and flour for an evening talk. Mara baked two small loaves with different flour blends so the room could compare the crumb.

Guests brought questions and took home a flour comparison sheet. The free talk and questions lasted 90 minutes, with 24 seats after the café closed.
