    May 20 2025

    Hear how Jo, Kyle and Humna came together from different experiences in Detroits food scene to open a highly successful bakery in Oak Park.

    Forest bakery is open Thursday, Friday and Saturday 10 -2 but those limited hours require a full week of prep and dedication to produce the high quality products they have become known for.

    Hear how they were very intentional with their business plan so that they would have a work life balance that works for them. This includes not wanting to hire employees and a focus on sustainability and quality, not on continued growth and expansion.
