For Burning Man 2018 our camp built Black Rock Bakery, a fully operational bakery, in the middle of the desert. We trucked in three ovens, two fridges, six mixers, 1,500lbs of ingredients, 700lbs of propane, the actual structure and an entire kitchen setup. With the help of thirty volunteers we operated a neighborhood bakery in our little temporary hometown of Black Rock City in the middle of the French Quarter village.

We did the unimaginable: we built a bakery in the middle of the desert. Our cakes were part of over thirty birthdays and weddings. We fed a thousand burners each day with freshly baked goods. We had thirty volunteers with little to no experience enjoy baking beautiful french patisserie. We had a line hundred people long each day. And we operated our Bakery without using gasoline or diesel.
