Recently, pupils and staff from the Nova Scotia Community College’s Baking & Pastry Arts program held a bake sale in support of the Park Avenue Community Oven.

We were fortunate enough to be invited to visit those students and faculty at Fresh Twenty One (a student-led restaurant classroom) to enjoy some delicious food, and receive a cheque for $800 in proceeds from the bake sale!

Generous community backing such as this more easily allows the Park Oven to continue to offer our inclusive venue for the enjoyment of citizens and visitors of our neighbourhood. We appreciate NSCC’s commitment to building skills locally and for supporting volunteer organizations such as our own.

If you have not already, consider supporting the learning of these talented students by dining at their Fresh Twenty One restaurant classroom located on the NSCC Akerley campus (21 Woodlawn Road, Dartmouth). It is a unique and enjoyable experience you will not regret (and will leave your belly very full!).

Information can be found on Fresh Twenty One’s Facebook or Twitter pages.
