Sharon and her daughter Sue Shepard do not appear to have a lot in common when you first meet them. Sharon is extremely outgoing while Sue is a little more reserved and laid back. Once you get to know them you realize that the apple really doesn’t fall far from the tree. They both share a passion for baking and helping people that has suited them quite well in establishing customer satisfaction and loyalty at “Shepard’s Pie on The Green.”

The baking part of it shouldn’t surprise anyone once you realize a little more about their family history. They are direct descendants of Charles and Henrietta Fleischmann. Yes, the Charles Fleischmann who revolutionized baking in the late 1860s by creating America’s first commercially produced yeast, which made it possible for mass production and consumption of bread.
