Home of the Saint Paul Bread Club (SPBC)

This is the new web site of the Saint Paul Bread Club.

It’s been reorganized to try to make the contents more accessible and easier to maintain. The rework is not completed yet, but I’m putting this up now just to get people used to the new look.

About the SPBC

Membership in the club is free and open to anyone interested in bread. Bread bakers with any level of experience are welcome. The SPBC charges no fees or dues. We are always looking for volunteers to work in the interest of the club.

Dan “Klecko” McGleno founded the Saint Paul Bread Club in 2003 to share his knowledge of breads and baking with home bread bakers. We are the largest bread club we know of.

Meetings

Quarterly Meetings - The bread club meets approximately quarterly at the St. Agnes Baking Co., 644 Olive St. in downtown Saint Paul, two blocks east of I-35E.

Monthly Meetings - The bread club also has subgroups that meet approximately monthly around the Twin Cities area. (We call these subgroups slices and we often refer to these subgroup meetings as slice meetings.)

Use the FUTURE SPBC EVENTS tab above to see the schedule for future meetings.

On-Line Forum

If you can’t get to a quarterly meeting or one of the monthly meetings (or you live out of town) you can still participate with bread club members by joining and contributing to the on-line forum (there’s a link to it on the right).

Other Bread Clubs

If you know about any other bread clubs, we would be overjoyed to know about them. Please send e-mail to me and I’ll add the other club’s information to our list.

If you would like to start your own bread club, we would be glad to be of any help we can. Please send e-mail to me and I’ll help you however we can. (Klecko wrote a chapter about forming your own bread club in the cookbook that is very useful.)
