FOOD MIDTOWN Oven’s hot Local Artisan Bakery opens on Broadway BY MARIE PRUITT

little over a year ago, Karianna Haasch was working in a corporate office, occasionally baking for her friends and coworkers when she had the time. People A often said her baked goods were good enough to sell, but she never imagined she ever would. Fast forward to now — Haasch just opened Local Artisan Bakery last weekend, a small-batch, locally sourced shop at 448 Broadway. The operation started as a pop-up, appearing only at festivals, events, and farmer’s markets and the bakery quickly gained a strong following. Haasch soon realized that her loyal customers didn’t want to wait for the next event to get their sugar fix. She knew she needed a brick-and-mortar location so she could offer her customers a way to get her creations any day of the week.

Kingston Times: What is your capacity and who qualifies? Eric Houghtaling: We have 24 beds on campus and are licensed by the New York State Office of Children and Family Services. We can accept boys as young as eight and as old as 21. Currently our youngest boy is 10 and the oldest is 19. We’re one of a number of residential treatment centers in the region. All of our kids have had some kind of trauma, such as physical or sexual abuse, neglect, developmental challenges, and learning disabilities. We have kids from as far south as New York City north to Glens Falls. We also have 24 seats in our day school program, which sets us apart: not every agency has an on-cam- pus school, which is attended by both our residential guys and kids from local school districts. In our day program we have kids from Ulster, Dutchess, Greene, Orange and Columbia counties. All of our beds are called “hard to place” — a lot of our boys don’t fit neatly into the category of mental health, developmental disabilities or psychiatric prob- lems. They may have challenges across all three areas, which makes them more difficult to place in certain facilities. Some have been at other facilities that weren’t right for them, maybe because they were too large.
