Have you ever tasted a dream kneaded into reality? Ben Rosairo, the artisanal force behind Ben's Bread, joins me from Tuscaloosa to recount his remarkable shift from UK project management to US sourdough savant. In this bread-centric journey, we uncover Ben's dedication to the timeless craft of sourdough bread making, with his hands thoughtfully working only the best organic, non-GMO ingredients. It's a sensory feast as we explore his bakery's lineup, boasting everything from the purest of baguettes to the most buttery croissants—each product a testament to Ben's sugar-free commitment (save for that necessary croissant sweetness). And the melody of his life doesn't end there; Ben's harmony with piano teaching resonates throughout, proving that the rhythm of passion can turn a YouTube hobby into a community treasure at the farmer's market and beyond.

Amid the aroma of freshly-baked bread, we break bread over Ben's entrepreneurial odyssey, filled with the thrills of skateboarding and the intense focus required for starting a business. The story of Ben's Bread is kneaded with challenges, from obtaining permits to beating the clock on financial deadlines. Yet, through the power of community, a Kickstarter campaign became the leavening that allowed his bakery dreams to rise, embedding a deep confidence and shared sense of ownership among his backers. Step into the sanctuary that is Ben's Bread, where the walls echo with the support of Tuscaloosa, and the air is thick with the promise of connection, nestled in every warm loaf. #GNPNorthport #BensBread #Tuscaloosa #EatLocal #BuyLocal #Bakery #Sourdough #BakedGoods #Bread #Baking #BakeryLife #Baking #BakeryLife
