Regional events are designed to connect individuals locally to the ASB community through fun networking and educational activities. Whether it is an outdoor event featuring local artisans or experiential learning at innovation centers, you can count on a peer network deepened through ASB membership. Here colleagues share knowledge, encourage and promote skill development, and create resources that advance the industry and its workforce. We do this because ASB Members are committed to the commercial and wholesale baking industry.
