About Homemade Bread Day
People have been making bread for at least 14,000 years, that’s about 4,000 years longer than they’ve been farming.
Since the dawn of civilization, baking fresh bread was part of the daily routine for most families.
While bakers took on the task, the invention of the bread maker machine in the 1980s has seen a resurgence in interest in making homemade bread.
