In April 2018, when Heather Hardcastle and her husband Rick Perko opened the second location of their gluten-free Flour Craft Bakery at the Mill Valley Lumber Yard, they did so with the intent to use the new space as a platform to expand their offerings to “be a more fully realized vision of what Flour Craft can be.”
Ever since their arrival, they’ve done just that. That fully realized vision of Flour Craft continued to expand in 2021, when Hardcastle unveiled the Flour Craft Bakery & Cafe Cookbook, a 224-page cookbook via Rizzoli Books available at both Flour Craft locations (129 Miller Ave. at the Mill Valley Lumber Yard and 702 San Anselmo Avenue in San Anselmo), on Flour Craft’s website and via the usual online channels (Amazon, Barnes & Noble).
Over the 2022 holiday season, they took part in a four-day, multi-faceted Holiday Faire event at MVLY by hosting a Gingerbread Decorating workshop.
