My name is Tara Jensen and my mission is to inspire self-confidence through the craft of baking. I’ve been baking daily in one way or another for over twenty years. In my twenties, I baked professionally for bakeries like Red Hen Baking, in Middlsex, Vermont and Farm and Sparrow, in Asheville, North Carolina. I ran a wood-fired market bakery, Smoke Signals, from 2011 to 2018, in Asheville, North Carolina, while also learning about fresh flour at Carolina Ground. My bread and pies have been featured in Food & Wine and Bon Appetit and my Instagram includes over 109,000 followers worldwide. I teach in-person and virtual workshops on sourdough bread and other delicious treats, whole grain pie crust and sourdough cinnamon rolls. You can find my first book (my diary of living and loving at a wood-fired bakery in the mountains) A Baker’s Year, wherever books are sold and you can now pre-order my second book, Flour Power, now! Catch me with my toddler, Violet Rye, baking up a storm on Instagram under @Bakerhands.
