Okotoks, Alberta is a small community south of Calgary that boasts an old-fashioned main street, beautiful views of the Rocky Mountain foothills and, for the past few years, a top notch bakery and cafe.
In this episode, Mark talks to Brad Labrenz and Marie-Luce Denis, owners of French50 Bakery, who are attracting hungry folk from well beyond the town limits. They talk about how they've grown from a market bakery to renting a kitchen to recently opening their own place in an old house just off main street. It's a conversation about family, community and bringing French tastes to Alberta.
