Greetings from a Mainer who is looking for an apprenticeship
Hello everyone, I am glad to be part of this great forum! I am an aspiring bread baker living in Maine, and I am currently looking for any leads on a good teacher who owns/works a bakery and is looking for an intern/apprentice. I am particularly interested in working with anyone who mills their own flour. I am also interested in working with wood-fired ovens, but that is not a necessity. I will relocate anywhere in the USA for this opportunity.
Thanks for reading, and I look forward to all the great information that this forum provides!
Cheers, Kyle

Hello, I ran across a job posting in colorado springs a while back. Don't know that it fits what you need, but the guy certainly knows his stuff with bread. The sourdough boulangerie.

Good luck!
Thanks, BreadLee! I was just reading a bit about his bakery and it seems that he is doing some really amazing work with a variety of grains. Thank you very much for taking the time to share the link with me!
Cheers, Kyle
I hope you find what you're looking for.
Likewise! I hope we all find what we are looking for!
Hi, I am just now seeing your post and have a couple of suggestions if have not yet found an apprenticeship. Consider contacting LouisMill in Anchorage, KY. You can look them up on the internet. I don't know if they offer paid apprenticeships or not, but they seem to be very open to having people observe and stay to help out in their busy operation.
There is a baker in Nashville, TN, who was seeking apprentices a while back, I don't know if he still is. I don't think he does his own milling, though. Check out BobbyJohnHenry Bakery.
Keep us posted on your journey!
