Rise Up! The Baker Podcast With Mark Dyck

Lisa and Nic Romano had careers in food and hospitality, and got into market baking so Nic could stay home with his young family.  But when business took off and they had a chance for a Big Leap, they both dove in, taking over The Breadery in 2023.  Now they are delivering wholesale bread around the state, running a full retail bakery (complete with olive oil tasting!) and are still attending four markets.  In this episode, Mark learns more about the effort involved in taking over an existing bakery, merging two passionate customer bases together, and keeping the family intact and engaged in a massive bakery project.  There is also the Bakery Leadership Circle, which is accepting applications for the Spring 2025 session!
