Popp says it will include a small seating area for customers.Rebecca Tilly, the baker behind Becca Bakes, began with a pop-up at Drmhus and now oversees their bakery operations."It was just so unexpected. I didnt [sic] it was just a hobby, and as a hobby I was pretty good at, so it just kept growing and growing," Rebecca Tilly said.She says turning the space into a full bakery has been an exciting milestone."It's a beautiful space, and to turn it into a bakery, I think is like an amazing idea. I mean, it's been a whirlwind," Tilly said.Chuck Sully, a longtime patron of Drmhus, says he is looking forward to the new bakery space opening."I think it would be a cozy spot," Chuck Sully said.He joked that the bakerys greenhouse windows offer a front-row view of the storms aftermath."Have a quiche or something here, and you can look at what the storm did," Sully said.Popp hopes to welcome visitors into the new space by April.
