Laurel Cristopher is business owner, baker, dishwasher, and as it turns out, she’s a good carpenter to boot. Christopher is from Winthrop; she was scouting places where a small specialty bakery would fit in. That’s when she found an old firehouse at 350 Main Street  in Thomaston, right next to the Prison Showroom. 

“I was originally looking for a house in Rockland,” said Christopher. “I drove by this place and there was a for-sale sign out. I checked and found I could fit it in my budget.” Christopher said she fell in love with the building.
